I posted this on day 1, 2018

Leave your prints wherever you go.
Try something new in your world of photography.
Share them for all of us to enjoy and be inspired.

Happy New Year to One and All!

Now we've reached day 365
and I'd say you all have
given a Grand Show.

Thank you for brightening my days!

Frosty the Snowman . . .

in miniature.

One of my favorite
snowman knickknacks

A Place To . . .

be snug and warm.


Today I'm thankful for 
my little corner all ready to be cozy 
alone or with family & friends
and count the days 'til spring
(84 to go as of today)


As much as I enjoy holiday trimmings 
it always feels fresh to have them 
packed away 'til next year.

The 3 Rs . . .

Re-cycle; Re-use; Re-purpose

Today I'm thankful for things others
did not toss in the trash
but rather applied these 3 Rs

This is the largest of my sleigh finds.
Imagine my joy when I spied it 
at the thrift store.

I hope things I pass on
bring a bright spot to others.

Respect

Why was I spared? --- George H W Bush

A question he asked after surviving his bomber going down and losing his two crew mates.
Not about politics; not about fame; not about wealth. While all those things factored into his life, they were not the foundation of the man.
The RG and I laughed and cried at some point in each of the eulogies for a man who understood unconditional love.
I encourage our children, our family and our friends to take time to listen to at least one of the eulogies. (I recommend all of them)
I also recommend listening to the homily 
by his pastor
more laughter; more tears.



It's True . . .

there is yet another wicker sleigh atMuldoon 


Maybe it's the texture;
Maybe it's the reminder of old movies;
Whatever it is, I am drawn to wicker sleighs.
I hope you enjoy them too.

A Reminder . . .

of Christ-mas.

"Advent is a time of consolation and hope."
---Pope Francis

Sleighs appear . . .

here and there atMuldoon

"At this Christmas when Christ comes, will He find a warm heart? Mark the season of Advent by loving and serving others with God's own love and concern." -Mother Teresa.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. ---Romans 15:13
