  9. Is there any place in the world you haven't trotted?

    I used the word verification when I got spam at one of my posts. It stopped.

  14. This is one of your best shots ever, Francisca. I don't care much for memes, but you've done really well here - the colors and light are great and the composition is perfect and it has a tremendous romantic interest. I really, really like it!

    So interesting about your "seasonal" business and how you can tell where those ornaments come from - even the factory...really? That's amazing.

    I don't do Xmas anymore, but Lois puts up a nice little tree - subdued but effective.

  19. What a terrific shadow shot for the day, Francisca! Such a lovely place to sit and watch the water, but I suspect the two in the photo are more interested in watching each other! But whatever, the view for us is delightful! Hope you have a great week ahead!

  29. Such a romantic photo!

    Regarding the bottle sculpture, I don't recall if they're painted on the inside. I see so much art, it's hard to keep track. But regardless, I liked it and I'm glad you took an interest, Francisca!
