It’s May Time! Finally the bridge from spring to summer has arrived.

This is the month of showy flowers and this gorgeous wisteria to start redecorating the trees with beautiful purple blooms standing tall and winding itself around anything within its reach.

It’s definitely the prettiest time of the year to get outside and walk comfortable before the dog days of summer bring out the heat.

This month is widely considered not only quiet optimism but a time of renewal and refresh making it a favorite time of the year for most of us. May is simply and unpolitically beautiful in Wilmington!

And don’t forget along the way to breathe in the smell of Jasmine that grows wild along the edges of the city. It’s tall evergreen bushes with small white flowers blooms hanging on the limbs.One word – intoxicating!

Remember friends, May begins our first evenings to extend daylight to 8pm making it a perfect month to grab more sunshine, maximize more serotonin, and vitamin D. Actually it’s called the month of Well-being.

Get out and smell the roses, enjoy! let me know what beautiful things you see…

Happy trails

If I were a mermaid what would my name be? Hidden deep in Greek mythology lies the mythological siren creatures of the sea, the mermaids.

Have you met one?

Is it folklore or do they lurk the ocean? Do you ever think about them when you’re swimming? I do! I’ve spent a good deal of my life watching the waves move back and forth on the shore wondering if mermaids are out there, imagining what it would be like to see one reveal themselves to me. To actually communicate!

Mermaids are often a tagline for millions of sea lovers who are bedazzled by the ideology of being like a mermaid, but really… who is?

I love the ocean and beach more than anyone else I’ve ever known and I know I’m no mermaid. And if I were a mermaid my name would be Ocean. What would your mermaid name be?

Happy trails!
