I actually felt like I was driving my old minivan with my kids in the back seat!<br /><br />When I got to her house she said something that reminded me of the moment driving in and remembering the 11 years we lived there and I told her about my strange feeling. She said there is something about this time of year, whether it's nearing the holidays or whatever, it makes her nostalgic for the past too and when she rounds a corner on the drive in she can almost picture her children trick or treating...so maybe there is something in the air?!<br /><br />I love Pink Floyd...a little nostalgia there too!<br /><br />Kat :)Low Tide High Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494078916477622322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-2439669467678789682010-10-11T23:30:37.549-04:002010-10-11T23:30:37.549-04:00Beautiful photos Kate.
