I recently traveled to British Columbia, a land that left me in awe and wanting to go back very soon to discover more! The landscape is magical and diverse, the people extraordinary, and my experience was delicious in every way.

I say delicious because it was just that. Amazing  colors, smells, and light were on display at every turn, and not just the kind nature dishes up. I witnessed the handiwork and heart of many creative souls on this adventure. This led to me embracing a theme along the way. I began looking for ways that creativity showed up and ways I could view with a creative eye. Let me tell you, there was no end to it. Here is a peek from my vantage and some facets of creativity at its finest:

A sandcastle - can you believe it !!!!

A buffet of colors combined by a master gardener.

A statue crafted with such emotion and heart.  - Butchart Gardens

and the view from a camera lens of nature's beauty.

I share my theme of creativity with you to encourage you look for the abundance of creative expressions in your world and your neighborhood and to slow down long enough to really enjoy them.

For me, having creativity in my mind's eye during my trip was like viewing life through a lens that had been cleaned up and polished - everything sparkled and radiated. Exceptional viewing contributed to an exceptional trip!
