After dinner + drinks, we boarded a bus and headed to various sites, locally, for scads of history. Of course, ghost stories were sprinkled into all we saw and heard. Seems our little town has a very interesting past!
Sometimes, I forget how much I enjoy anything historic... You see, even though my graduate degree is in Public Administration, I was a History major as an undergraduate. And...I absolutely adored every minute of learning about past places, events and people...
I always tell myself I love vintage due to its impact upon our environment. This still stands as true. I'm now realizing, though, my passion is equally related to my adoration for the past as well.
The pics featured in this post are of me en route to Friday eve's event. I sported something (aside from my spooky gloves) that was seasonally appropriate and it is certainly historic: Victorian mourning beads.

What passions would you like to reclaim? Would love to hear about them! Rediscovering past passions equals newfound joy--in my opinion!
BTW, I'm linking this post today to a fave blog of mine, Two Birds. Check out the inspired link-up fun, by clicking here.
Joy and peace, T.
