Sweetwater Lake. Lake Gaston. The City of Atlanta. Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Montreal, Canada. Savannah, Ga. The Gullah/Sea Island Coast. Idyllwild, California. New York. Safe arms. Dangerous smiles. Uninhibited minds.THINGS: Crushed ice. Belly laughs. Turtles. The Dragonfly. Butterflies. A chocolate molten dessert. Succulent houseplants. The small sting of hot wax. Fresh smells. Contrasting textures. Toe rings. The sound of new book pages. Sundays. Cotton. Red velvet cake. Non-altered fresh spring water. Beginnings. Sexy winds that flare nostrils and threaten to lift your skirt.
