Take Me There


It's Monday morning, and I'm sad that summer is ending this week. The kids go back to school in two days, and I'm dreading those 6:30 a.m. school bus pickups. Those afternoons filled with homework. I've got a list as long as my arm of things to do today to get ready for the school year, but I just want to crawl back into bed and pretend it isn't happening.

When I discovered Christine Reilly, a photographer who specializes in amazing ocean photography, I resonated with the title of this piece: Take Me There. Yes, please do. Take me here.

She also takes us under the water with her. In the mood for a swim?
Christine tells me, "Beaches, beach houses, and anything to do with the water is definitely something that is close to my heart." You can see more of her work at her Etsy shop and her website.

Anyone else got the end-of-summer blues?

P.S. I'm showing photos of Diane Lane's Italian villa from Under the Tuscan Sun over at Hooked on Houses today. It's one of my favorite movie houses.
