You might have seen this on Facebook, because it's been everywhere, but if you've missed it, I wanted to show you! The silo minion! This is located not far from us, in Ossian, Indiana. {And this is a county we have already toured, or you can KNOW we would put it on the list of things to stop and see while we're in the area!}

I am typically not a fan of letter art {unless the letters spell something} but when I read this post by KariAnne and saw the very end, I got all mushy inside. The reminder that the letters can be formed into words, which are then formed into the stories of our lives got me right in the soul.  I imagine it is only a matter of time before I want to make my own one of these...

It's been a while since I had a current favorite song, but Breathe by Jonny Diaz holds that title right now. Good message, catchy tune, and flat out TRUTH. If you haven't heard it, check it out!

Some of you may have already seen this, but for those of you who haven't, you should read this post by Rory Feek. A friend of his has taken footage Rory shot of Joey throughout her last couple of years and is turning it into a film version of the story of her life. The story-lover in me loves this.

With travel season in full swing, I really appreciated this post by a blogger who has started a clean eating journey as well. She shares some of her tips for eating well while traveling!

I have been waiting for this book since I closed the first book in the series. {And not waiting very patiently, either, I might add.} This book is a celebratory marker for its author, Irene Hannon, because it is her fiftieth novel. WOW! Congratulations, Irene!

I fell in love with the fictitious little town of Hope Harbor {on the Pacific Northwest Coast} in the first book, titled Hope Harbor {my review of that book found here}, and have wondered if maybe someone could actually build the town so we could move there. It's one of those charming little towns where everyone knows everyone else's business, but in the kind of way that makes good neighbors, not in the kind of way that makes you want to go into seclusion.

From food trucks to cranberry bogs to local plays, Hope Harbor is a delight, and in book number two, Sea Rose Lane, Eric Nash heads back to this little town where he grew up to regroup after losing his job. A good attorney with a rising career, Eric has fallen victim to a company restructure, and when he arrives back in town {with a bit of a literal bump after crashing his BMW into a pickup truck owned by BJ Stevens}, he finds that his dad is smack in the middle of transforming their big family home into a BandB.

Furthermore, BJ is the contractor overseeing the job, and her presence causes more than a few distractions for an already unsettled Eric. With a suddenly-free schedule, Eric begins helping out here and there, and every path seems to push him closer and closer to the lovely BJ. Having just come out of a disastrous relationship herself, BJ is not interested in looking for romance, but after a few run-ins with Eric {the one involving their vehicles excluded, of course}, she is surprised to learn she isn't interested in letting this one get too far away.

The book includes glimpses of friends from book one but a host of new friends to love, too! I loved returning to Hope Harbor and am THRILLED to see that next spring I can go back AGAIN!!!!


Thank you, Irene, for a delightful return trip to see my book-friends in Hope Harbor and thank you, Revell, for providing a copy of the book in exchange for review!
