Happy Weekend! Links // June 15
Happy Friday! So many fun things going on this time of the year– Father’s Day is Sunday (what will you do to spoil the father(s) in your life?), wedding season is in full swing, Charlottesville is in an uproar (rightfully so) about the mysterious resignation of UVA Prez Sullivan, and, oh yes, the Olympic Trials start in one week! Whew– busy enough?

Whatever you’re up to this weekend, it’s summer and you better make time for a few classic summery adventures: long walks in the warm evenings, pool dates, trips to Blue Hole for some cliff jumping, frisbee golfing, long afternoons on the front porch with glasses of wine. And, of course, finding inspiration from everywhere– these places for instance! –>
