A collection of links I love, sites I like, interesting reads or cool happenings nearby.
"I Couldn't Be Any Luckier" ~ If you haven't been a Phil Mickelson fan, you will be.
The Sage of St. Anthony ~ I was introduced to Coach Bob Hurley in a 60 Minutes segment last week; he defines hero. Do not miss getting to know this one-kid-at-a-time World Changer.
"the girl and the Genius" ~ A post recently featured on Story Bleed, the spectacular, amazing prose-poetry of Amber Haines. She makes me want to write better.
Biltmore Estate's Festival of Flowers has begun and from what I hear the grounds are floral fireworks! If there's any way you can travel to Asheville, NC between now and May 15, treat yourself to breathtaking beauty!

THERE'S STILL TIME TO BUY YOUR TICKETS!! A wonderful event benefitting Chattanooga Endeavors, Inc., a local charitable organization I've only recently discovered. Because my in-laws are deeply involved with prison ministry, I'm thankful to learn about what we're doing locally to help ex offenders.

Janice and Susan from 5 Minutes for Mom are hosting their annual Ultimate Blog Party. Especially if you're a newer blogger (or thinking about beginning), you will want to jump in this frantic, fun annual cyber event. Plus, thousands of dollars in giveaways are up for grabs!
{And if you're here visiting PENSIEVE from the UBP, skim through my 100 Things imaginary party post & let me know how we're similar/different in comments.}
Your turn: Please share a must-read link you've written or seen this week!

I’ll buy that bella sera event ticket. Thanks for sharing the links.
Loved your list and see much of myself there–the warm feel of a mug of coffee and Newman and Redford as eye candy. (I nearly tripped Robert Redford once, my legs stretching out on the sidewalk as I was sitting on a bench watching skiers at his Sundance resort.) I’ve been thinking about #10 on your list lately as well. Stopped over from UBP. Nice to meet you!
Hi there, popping in from UBP11. This is my 1st blog party and it’s a great way to find new blogs to read.
Nikki 🙂
So funny you put a link to Biltmore…just went this past weekend with my family and blogged about it! Was gorgeous but they said the beginning of May will be AMAZING! I think we’ll go back then!
Always love my stops here….Happy Friday
What a fantastic party. I have am trying to read as many blogs as I can but think I am running out of time.
I have already found some new blogs that are jewels.
I wish there was time to read every single one….
Hope you will stop by…I have some extra giveaways on my party post and all you have to do is comment.
