...That I get to take walks in this BEAUTIFUL (high desert rock garden) park several times a week!

I heard someone say it's like waking up on the front of a postcard every morning to get to live here!

...For the bluest of skies!

(I ran into these guys on 3 different days this past week...couldn't resist adding extra pictures.)

Okay, here I am on the front of the postcard!

These amazing rocks in the background which give the landscape an other worldly appearance, were once
lying down flat, deep under the earth's surface until some quite dramatic geological disturbance caused them to
shoot up sideways piercing the earth's crust. There is a visible fault line. Looking at it always reminds me
of God's incredible power!

...For the path ahead of me, even though it may be littered with animal scat and I have no idea where it is
taking me.
(...Figuratively speaking. I actually know this trail quite well, and yet, it still can be full of surprises.)

Thanks Mud! Thanks Mish!

Mish, I think most women are way too hard on themselves when it comes to pictures. I cringed as I bravely shared
my whole online album with this San Francisco guy I'm corresponding with online. He picked out 2 that I would
rather not have even shown him, for his favorites.

Photo 1 I would describe as "Here I am all shiny after sweating off most of my makeup hiking". (He said, "It shows
your natural beauty.")

Photo 2 I would describe as "There I am with flat hair, squinting, and the way my head is turned makes my
neck look fat." (He said, "This shows off your fabulous curves!")

So, give us a picture already!

So incredibly beautiful!! Thanks for sharing, Mame! It's hard to imagine that we live in the same country. Illinois couldn't be any more different~ Beautiful in it's own way, but your place is breathtaking!!

Oh, My Goodness, Mame~

What an Amazingly Gorgeous Creation you Are!
I Am soo grateful to be able to share the Energy you put forth...
It and you are Lovely beyond Words. Lovely~* +:.
This man you correspond with is Quite observant... I like him already.
: )

I've got a photo of my friend, Juliann & me I could post... however, it's in photo-form & have No idea how to push it into the computer & have it appear on the screen. Perhaps I'll ask around...

Until then.... picture me with loooooooong legs, huge blue eyes, big, full lips, & natural blond hair. (well.... That's how I look in my dreams....)
; D
Please Keep sharing your life with us. I enjoy every teeny spark.~*

Wow! Thank you! You are TOO kind, Kindred! Your words have made my day!

Do find a friend with a scanner who can make a digital copy of your picture and put it on a disc or email it to you. We'd love to see you my dear! (If you get that far with it, I'll be glad to give you more advice from there.)

Great pix, indeed, Mame. I need to share some of the Flatirons views I see on my walk.

Thanks, too, for the chamisa photo. Was mine in bloom when you visited here? But, especially, thanks for thinking of me.

Lana just got back from Taos so she got to see all the chamisa in bloom down there. Me? I was walking my Precinct to get out the vote.
