I found this lovely postcard in my mailbox this week from my dear friend Viv. Even though I didn't participate in the fall postcard swap she still sent me a postcard. That meant a lot to me.

A new dog bed makes for a happy and sleepy dog.
Find No. 3
A piece of cheese works wonders to get your dogs to pose for you.
Find No. 4
Feeling courageous this week after starting Brene' Brown's new e-course, The Gifts of Imperfection, I did the required homework of writing this on my hand, taking my picture and posting it as my FB profile picture. You never know who you will impact when you do brave things like this.
Find No. 5
Glen and I are away for the weekend. We went north about 3 hours from our house to Traverse City. This picture is at a former state mental hospital in Traverse City. I have always wanted to explore and photograph there, but it seems every time we are there it is raining. I thought this time would be a bust as well as, since we drove through a snow storm on our way there. Once we got there though no snow and the sun was starting to come out. There will be more photos and a post coming on this amazing place.

LOVE LOVE your #4 and the last photo is a beautiful photo it makes me sad though probably because of what it is/was.

It's been a great week! Hope you find lots of goodies this weekend and some rest. Looking forward to the mental hospital tour.
i love mail call! your puppies are too cute. enjoy Brene's class. i'll be waiting to see the other shots of the mental hospital -- abandoned buildings have their memories, too -- good and bad.
Hope you are having a wonderful stay.
Sarah so pleased that you liked the postcard, I wish I was there with you taking shots of the old building looks so interesting..
Great post! You are very lucky your husband takes you on these little forays for you to shoot. I have Brene's book, so I didn't take the class. I really need to read it. I love your photo!
You are the second blogger who has mentioned Brene Brown...I need to look him up.
Sweet dogs, and I love your selfie!
Another cliff hanger! I'm sure the photos and history of the old mental hospital will be so interesting!
Love your Random 5, Sarah !
Your dogs are so cute !
Great selfie and what a lovely card from Viv, so sweet of her !
Nice weekend,
Sylvia
The natural textures in that last photo are beautiful! And we all would do well to embrace the delicious imperfections within ourselves. :-) I love your FB post shot too. But...the two Goldens are my favorite. Best. Breed Ever.
Visiting from Friday Finds.
You are enough and you are inspiring. Love Brene' Brown's message.
I agree, you are enough! love your dogs too by the way
Have a nice weekend Sarah...I'm sure you'll find lots of things to photograph...and brave you for doing the #4 project.
Love your photography. The mental hospital looks appropriately creepy for Halloween.
Sarah . . . Each photo was perfect. Dogs waiting for cheese brought me a smile and . . . oh my, the final photo . . . stunningly stark . . .
Have a wonderful weekend!
5 great finds! Have a fun weekend away!
your pups look so sweet, and that shot of the old door is great, but snow storms already . . . . !
Another week of great finds! Love your FB photo. Can't believe you drove through snow, we're just now getting cooler nights! Enjoy your weekend!
Post card from a friend, sweet furry friends, taking care of yourself and a trip with hubby....all makes for a perfect random five.....
Looking forward to more photos of that place -- looks spooky.
Have a nice end sunday, greeting from Belgium

Okay, I gotta do this Linky on Friday. Sarah you make Random so appealing! Can't wait to see more of the mental hospital.
(That didn't sound right.)

That old hospital is sure to have provided lots of photos opportunities. And, I admire your courage in confessing imperfection cause not many people would do so.
I'm taking Brene's course too... super helpful for me in my perfectionism! :)
