Looks can be deceiving

Happy Monday my friends!

I had a great summer weekend. Saturday morning It volunteered at the Run/Walk for Irish Fest. I actually rained right up until the race started which made me very thankful that I was volunteering under the refreshment tent and not running in the race. Of course with the 'luck of the Irish' the rain stopped just in time and we had beautiful weather for the rest of the day.



That night my sis and I had about ten other girls over for a 'Wine and Chick Flick' night. We watched Sixteen Candles and finished six and half bottles of wine. I had never seen the movie before. Great girl's night movie. I can't believe it's rated PG though.







Then on Sunday we spent the whole day at Bradford Beach. It was a ton of fun. Most of the time we sat around and talked, soaking in the sun. We did play a few games of volleyball. If you're ever hanging out in Milwaukee you should check it out. Live music, food, volleyball. Cool stuff.

One thing you don't want to do there... swim. Even though, look at it. It looks beautiful right?

And, yes, there are a few people who brave the waters.

But when our local sewage treatment plant can't handle everything, guess where it goes... Yep.





In your favorite books or work in progress I'm sure you have locations, people, comments that are deceiving. That's what makes for good work, in my opinion. It doesn't have to be big, subtle is great too.

What are your favorite deceptions?

  1. I never thought about it... I might have to sit down and think for awhile.

  2. It sounds like so much fun! The part about the beach water-- Ew! I love how you related it to deceptive things in writing! It makes me want to go write something like that RIGHT NOW.
