A Great Bunch

Well, I had no intention of posting so few times (Once a week?? Really??) but I guess I just better give up trying to do this every day. I have to do it as I have the energy, and I don't think that there are many viewers anyway, so it's just for me to have fun. (And for my sister to "visit"!)

Look carefully, the picture was taken directly over the camels, and their shadows  are fully formed. I think this is fantastic!! A National Geographic photo sent to me from Germany

Rockport Texas

A marvelous quilted chicken, sent from the US!!

Porto, Portugal - where Port Wine is shipped.



From Russia, the sender translates the words as "Give it love and tenderness". So sweet!

Another great Edward Gorey card, it reads on the back "It came seventeen years ago - and to this day it has shown no intention of going away." I like the little shoes!

Hope you have had a good week!
