⚡️ Now & then. October 2006 --> July 2021. I was here. I was here. 💘 (And camera phones have gotten a LOT better, wow.)

💐 This is now a fan account for my sweet, beautiful dog. 😹 He actually does have his own Insta account (@fenwickcanine) if you want to follow. 😻

It’s been years since I’ve been in Oak Hill, or in New York for that matter. It hasn't been a full 24 hours being back yet, and it's been so easy and familiar to reconnect. 💐

Thank you to Chris and Mary Lou for having me. I'm so blessed and grateful. ✨💖

🧿 Random snaps from around Philly. I haven't be

🧿 Random snaps from around Philly. I haven't been here since May 2016 and being back was unexpectedly emotional.

🧿 Philly was my last trip before I left NYC for Dallas in June 2016. I was with my ex and was in a very particular headspace at the time.

🧿 Being here now has given me perspective on all that's happened since. It's been nice to walk with those memories and honor my past self while observing new memories as my future self. 😌

🧿 I feel like people so rarely get to do things like this, and it's been so nice to sit with these thoughts for a while. May all beings be happy. ✨

In no particular order: Fenwick at the Bellevue, Rittenhouse Square, yummy Indian food, ya boy, summer sunsets in the city. 🌇

✨ Potential captions:

“And how do you spell that?” 🧐
“It’s like everyone here already knows you!” 😳
“I’m wearing the blue shirt with my name on it in big capital letters… yes, I’m serious.” 😋
“Ever been there? Wanna go?” 😎
“Here to make friends, obvi” 👯‍♂️
Are there any others to consider?

No but for real, Harlan is a town and county in southeastern Kentucky. My grandmother would often talk about her time there and the only thing she brought to Mississippi was a big custom-built bed made of dark wood. She called it her “Kentucky bed.” 🛏 My Ancestry family tree shows my first US ancestors landed in Kentucky. 🧬 I’ve always been kind of fascinated with the place from afar.

I’d like to stop by and pay Harlan a visit at some point in my wanderings. Until then…

Snaps on my way to and from the Warhol Museum toda

Snaps on my way to and from the Warhol Museum today. Looking mighty good, Pittsburgh. 😻🔩 (And a bonus quote from Mr. Warhol.) 😎🌅

Side note: Did you know Pittsburgh has 446 bridges?! 🙀 That's like, so many.

🖼 The @thewarholmuseum has a ton of Warhol's art, but is also focused on his life and relationships. They do an excellent job of placing him and his work within the context of the world at the time. I have a feeling he would've LOVED Insta.

🖼 He was from Pittsburgh, so of course I had to pop in while I'm here. Well worth the walk over the bridge in the gorgeous summer weather today. 🌅

Happy New Moon in Cancer. 🌑 Make art and live your truth, bbs.

🌊 Pittsburgh is the largest convergence of rive

🌊 Pittsburgh is the largest convergence of rivers in the Western hemisphere and a massive Crossroads energy vortex of feminine depth.

⛲️ I'm at the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, forming the Ohio River, at Point State Park in downtown Pittsburgh. While being a significant historical site because these river systems link Pittsburgh to the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico, I find deep spiritual meaning in the convergence of two to create three, as well as the spiritual meaning of the number three.

It represents the union of oneness and duality, it's an archetypal, primordial number of completion. It's the triad, the triangle, and the symbolism of everything that comes in threes. I find it so interesting that there are three rivers in downtown Pittsburgh.

⛲️ Fun fact: this fountain is "powered" by a deep, FOURTH underground river. The comparison to the Empress and Emperor in the tarot isn't lost on me, as well as the obvious phallic symbology. 😜

Just really cool things to think about as the sun sets and mist floats in the air. There's an energy here I can't quite place.
