I have so much to tell you about my weekend trip to Nashville for Assignment #13. It’s just that I need more time to write it out. That’s why I’m so grateful for what I found in my inbox yesterday morning:
Roadside Seaside Shoe! …courtesy of my excellent (and lifesaving) friend, Harsha, from H is for Happiness.
First, what you need to know: Harsha began her blog when she moved from Singapore to Goa to be closer to her parents. She writes about her culture, her travels and her adorable son, Ishaan. She’s a beautiful writer with incredible spirit—a truly wonderful read any day of the week. Be sure to check her out.
Anyway, Harsha found this Seaside Shoe! while cruising the Panjim shoreline Saturday morning. Jealous?
In her words:
“Here’s a slipper I found today on our morning drive along the beach…it seemed so forlorn, sitting on the red brick wall that separated the narrow slip of beach from the heaving Arabian Sea, all grey and surfy from the monsoons, as if waiting for someone to come and claim it, show it some love, give it a home or a foot in this case. Thought I would send it along.”
What a picture. One of the best things about Harsha is that she never takes these kinds of scenes for granted.
Come back tomorrow for Part I of 36×37 Assignment #13. And then come back Wednesday for Part II. (And then come back Thursday and Friday and every day after, just because I like the company…)
Happy Monday, all!

One she always seems so lonely, because you know there is a mate to it out there that is lonely too.
Aaaaaaaaaaw Maura! Thanks a million for the shout-out
I just want you to know I truly appreciate your support and needless to say enjoy your wit and your blog!
Can’t wait to read all about Nashville
Cheers!
Can’t want to here what you have to say about Nashville. I know what it’s like to live here (it’s pretty cool), so it’s also neat to hear what folks from out of town think about it.
Initially I felt so sorry for the poor shoe, sitting on the wall all by itself. But then I thought maybe it’s partner went surfing and it’s just waiting patiently. Or it needed some quiet time all by itself, just to recharge. So maybe it’s really a very content shoe.
