Great garden shots! What a difference a good camera makes! xo
ReplyDeleteLydia,
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect blog for this Sunday morning. Love reading the Bible scriptures. Very fitting.
Funny because just a few minutes ago John, Daryl, Becky and I were having a conversation about what we want for our funeral/buriel. (It was a fun and light hearted conversation tho) I told them they can do anything they want with me but I have ONE request. That request is just to comfort my loved ones. I want read the 23rd Psalms. My favorite and very comforting.
Have a good one and don't work too hard!
XO Trisha
Oh Lydia, you are sure putting that new camera to great use. You can now add photo-journalist to your resume! ;-)

I would love to see your Garden. There are so many BEAUTIFUL Plants in it and ALL pampered with Love! Because of my Health situation, it is probably not possible, but seeing pictures of your Garden is always ALWAYS, a great treat.
