VISITING MY MOTHER AT MOORINGS PARK; MY CASUAL OOTD

Enjoying Moments of Peace and Quiet

More than nine years ago, my mother moved from her condominium in Pelican Bay to the Moorings Park community in North Naples, and my brothers and I are so thankful for that. Two hurricanes have blown through Naples since then, but because Moorings Park is further away from the coast than her prior residence, she and the community were fine both times. They also have a generator for her building, unlike where she lived before, so even though the rest of us were without power, they never were. I know my father would be glad she is there, too, and I’m just so grateful she lives in such a peaceful place.

There are several large ponds and many old trees and palm trees. There is even a butterfly garden, which I highlighted in my post here.

Naples has grown enormously since I moved here in 1984, and although it’s still a beautiful place I do also miss how quiet and peaceful it was in those earlier days. When I visit my mother at Moorings Park, I’m reminded of those times, because there is literally no traffic, there is lots of vegetation and it’s very quiet, which is so soothing to the soul.

My Casual OOTD

The outfit I wore that day is so comfortable! It consisted of Pull-On Chinos, a White Long-Sleeve Tee, and a Heathered Oatmeal Cotton Cable Sweater. With it I wore a Longchamp leather crossbody bag and very old khaki leather ballet flats. I love these chinos, because they give me the same easy pull-on style as the linen, wide-leg, tie-waist pants I wear all summer long but in a winter-weight fabric. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve worn them in the last six weeks. They’re that cute and comfortable.

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday weekend. Here’s to a happy, healthy, safe and happy 2023 wherever you are!

(ABOVE) Warby Parker Durand Sunglasses in Rosewater (narrow width). What I love about ordering from this site is that you can choose five pairs to try on at home. The shipping to you and back is complimentary. I ended up ordering two different pairs in the narrow size. (The other pair I ordered are Butler in a narrow width and the color Butterscotch Tortoise.) They offer narrow, medium, and wide widths in both glasses and sunglasses.
