I love water! This is two blocks from the apartment, and has a nice walking trail. I think every neighborhood should have one of these! A cute bridge, a canal, and a water fountain (which it has at one end). And ducks. Every pond should have ducks.

I know, I know, this looks a lot like the last photo. But darn it, they are so pretty! And it makes a great desktop picture by the way. This weekend while we were out driving around I noticed little blue heads poking through the brown grass along the highway. It's...

This has to be one of the happiest flowers I've ever seen. This, and daisies. Daisies always make me smile. No, this one isn't local, it's a Florida flashback. I just didn't want to miss sharing it :-). I'm still waiting for the spring wildflowers to poke their way...

I am so excited for spring to get here! I'm hoping to take many trips out to hunt flowers, especially bluebonnets. I can see the promise of spring in the branches here, even though winter is reluctant to let go. Can't wait, bring it on Spring!

This is the thing I love most about reading books. I get transported to different places, times, planets...no passport, car, train, airplane, boat or spaceship required and without spending a lot of money. To all the authors who sent their stories out into the...

I think this tree has a story to tell. At first glance you might think it's weeping, but I don't think so. It looks more like a lady in an elegant gown, which has been torn and is hanging off her in long strips. Why has it been torn? I don't know. I need to ask the...
