Connections, at least genuine ones, are rare in today’s social media. But sometimes the stars align and magic happens.

Believer in the force? Are you disgusted at the Star Wars Episodes 1-3 debacle? Do you speak wookie? Have you ever wondered what the marriage of Hans and Leia would have looked like?

In the city, my head is on a swivel as I try to take in everything around me (except when I am in New York, only because I know I'll look like such a kook of a tourist so I try to be sly as I pick my sights).

"Hey! I know of this beautiful chapel, the Chapel Between Cotton and Gin, about an hour and a half away. I think you'd love it. It's surrounded by cotton fields, which should be in bloom and there is a dusky, but charming abandoned house down the road with some amazing light that I think we could make some photos in too. What do you think?"
