Flowers in a neighbours garden …

Today I went to a  house,
in the next street to me
and asked if I could practice taking
flower photos in their garden ..
A lovely elderly couple that I have never
even spoken too.
It took a while to explain what I
was going to do with them ….
The blog …!!!!

The Cosmos is native to Mexico, but the lady of the house,
did say that they grow all over the land in South Africa,
where her friend lives.

I think secretly they were very happy that
someone really notices their garden..
You cannot miss it .. it is beautiful when in
full bloom!!

Deep within ……….

We all have something that we would like to share, but

somehow blogging doesn’t seem right..

Sometimes the past catches up with you

and it can all go wrong ..

Sometimes the past can catch up with you

and it all goes RIGHT!!!!

I am so happy .

My Latest Piece of Ceramic Painting ….

I am really happy how this has turned out.

It was an experiment of sorts,

I saw a design on a lovely top and adapted it.

A Quick Note …..

Having been away from the computer

for a whole week,

I have lots to catch up with.

I need to sort out

my photos, catch up with

people and blogs.

So I am going

to

leave you with these

beautiful words.

Barbara , this is for you :-) :-)

My one and only postcard from my hubby

Cimg1999

 

He sent me this postcard in 2002 ..It is kept in my box of memories …..

The Shereton Maui, located on famous Ka’anapali Beach, Maui..

Funny when I read it ..

“Well I have remembered, after the excitement of the submarine yesterday”

Now that is where I would love to be right now..!!

It was so delicious.

I would like to blog about him more, but he

doesn’t like it.

One day I will get a photo of him,

with all of his medals!!
