Thanks for looking Ian and for your kind comments. My phot skills need a lot of work, but I'm willing to put forth more effort now. This forum makes one want to try harder.

Thank you so much. My blue eyed dog was with me evrywhere I went and when I whipped out a camera, she seemed to be a little puzzled.

I love them. I have lots of Jonquils and Narcissus in my yard. People in Tn call them March Flowers. I am not from here originally. I was born and raised in B'ham Al. Down there, they are Jonquils!

:-D

Oh shoot! I forgot shooting (not hunting) and fishing! That too. They don't call me Annie Oakley for nothing.
I am NEVER bored

Ivan, I MUST apologize! Being fairly new here, I truly was NOt aware that there is a rule (possibly, unspoken) about it being a NO NO to post in someone else's thread without being invited. I have seen it happen so many times on the forum that I guess I just didn't think about it until I saw someone get called down about it today in a thread. I shall not be doing that again!!!! Carry on, please.

Oh, go ahead John. It won't make me feel so bad about flooding the forum with mine. Yes, that's a morning Glory and I see some Spider Wort and I think the tiny blueish thing you didn't name is either a tiny aster of sorts or an ice plant. There are so many kinds of each, it's hard to tell. The un-named one could even be a phlox.

OK, I went back and watched the bacon explosion. We owned a sausage plant for 26 years, but I never liked sausage (couldn't tell anybody that), but it does look good and my son will love it. Gotta send it to him!!!

I love it. I'm scared to watch the bacon one. Call me chicken! :lol:

I love too many things. I started drawing and painting at 4, had my first camera at 8, first dark room at 10, loved horse since I was 3, love flowers, parrots, aquariums and gourmet cooking, play the organ and taught ballroom dancing for several years. I studied Interior design years ago and still love decorating!
I did wall murals for 35 years and have retired from that before I kill myself climbing on a ladder. I have hand painted (then scanned and printed) greeting cards since 1993 and sell tons of them at Christmas time in all 50 states and 5 other countries. I can still break a horse (though I am a lacey kind of southern lady) and ride a big blue roan that I still have to get on a ladder to get in the saddle. I'd say painting and riding are my favorites. With all I love to do, housework is at the bottom of my list of favs. before we married, I told my hubby "I can EITHER be a great lover or a great housekeeper." He said "forget the house". WELL, long answer. Sorry you asked?

My world grand champion, Caesar's Ghost


with SECRETERIATE in 1978


Oil painting. I love yellow houses

Oh, don't I wish!!!! Thank you!

The lensmaster, stop posting??? Heaven forbid! You do and we'll all come beat you up!! (now that's a real threat to someone who plays with BEARS!!!!) :lol:

I love F/V Fran. The slightest ripple under the vessel shows ther IS water there. It fabulous. I have run out of adjectives!!!

Hey DP, that's what moms are for!!!!

:thumbup:

I love that the water lilies sit perfectly still for you! :lol:

Ummmmm, yeah. I've always told my boys that no matter how I may hate something they do, I will always love them. Gotta stand by that!
