Wonderful 🙂 PS Have you noticed that I started a new blog? I could not upload any more photos on the old one 😉

Is this a current picture? Is it snowing up where you are? Crazy! Pretty picture though. Especially when it’s sooooo hot here!

  No snow where I am at present. 95 degrees. This is close to me and was taken in Feb, I am guessing.

A lovely and peaceful scene. It’s good to see snow (since we’re in the midst of a heat wave now). I think I’ll sit here for a while and cool off. 🙂

  I whine during the winter and I whine during the summer. I am an equal opportunity whiner. I don’t whine in the fall.

    We should start a whiners blog where we can complain about something every day. I have more complaints than I do photos 😉

    I love that! An opportunity for humor and rants, with some pretty thrown in. You provide the pretty and I’ll add some insanity.

    NO ONE whines in the fall. Fall is our reward for surviving the rest of the year.

  One can’t have enough humor, and yet most people seem to be wanting in that regard. Curious, given how hilarious most things are.
