    That is a glorious picture and reminds me of the joy of spring, all that color.  What a wonderful world our Lord made for us.  Thank you so much for that.  Church was so awsome today.  When I was younger I would think "boreing"  but there is nothing boreing about this church now.  It is full of such wonderful messenges, Gods love, wonderful inspiring people and the music is out of this world beautiful.  That picture above shows it all.

    Do you brace the camera to your face

    to view through the viewfinder??

    Don't use the LCD screen

    or use something close by??

    I don't use a tripod...

    round it and bullrushes, the redwing blackbird

    looked so pretty

    That meercat can come camp with me anytime.  I love watching that show, they are such a cool animal.

    Sierra, I love having you come post and look at the pictures.  Will go to birdforum.net and check it out.  Thanks for that information.  Love all animals, be they land, sea, or sky, and some even in the ground, like those meercats.  We are covered with lady bugs here, they are so cute.  I had like 20 on my curtain the other day and gathered them all up and put outside for the garden. 

    Lisa, the walls are off white and couch is sage green and carpet is tan or it needed some color.  My Aunt had given me a ceramic pot she had made and it had a huge arrangement of greens and  the orange poppies so I chose the orange curtains and love them.  We call them pumpkin and my DH says they add spice to our life.

    I guess I love color, this is my Indian guest room, my kids are 1/2 Chicasaw Indian, so have always been interested in their culture.  the glass vase setting by the bed is actually full of arrowheads my dad found.  On one wall is all Indian paintings.  But our bedroomm is all off white and tan so don't know where I am going there yet but I keep picturing leopards and lions sorta of like this:

    Hello moutain.  I keep thinking of that song Go tell it on the mountain that Christ the King is Born.

    Hope all has a wonderful day, hike, and look for good stuff. For crafting or gardening or whatever fun things it is you do with unique finds in the mountains.  Find some furry friends and be still enough that they might come up to sniff you.

    I found this old man hiking in the mountains and he was teaching me to do a country jig.  He is a funny old guy - we may become good friends unless takes off on his donkey for parts unknown.

    Hi Spar:

    Just lovely that flower

    and I also love your guestroom there

    I have always loved anything native

    Indian, once a sister sent me

    a dreamcatcher, which is in my apt

    however, my Kitty did get after it

    when I was out :( it is lovely

    It would have been nice to have spent

    more time in Albuquerque some years ago

    however

    Sierra

    Namaste :))

    Thank you Sierra.  I love dream catchers also.  No one has a bad dream in my guest room because that dream catcher catches it. Thank you so much for posting on the mountain thread. It is very peaceful here.

    Yes, it is a mirror Sierra.  Have you got a camera to take pictures of flowers and cute rabbits?

    How are you doing? Do you ever hear from beachcottage4me?

    You know Sahalie, that baby chicken could be made out of yellow felt that you posted on the beach thread and little black buttons for eyes.  Going to try to think of some new things for bird feeders. I love the flip flops I made today.  They were fun.

    Hello, mountain, my peace and solace.
