“Hiking Towards Home”
Great name! But… now you’re making me feel lazy – I should stop looking and get moving!
🙂
Nice to see your blog (I followed you from http://www.TentBlogger.com, so I guess I’m not that stationery)!
THESE are gorgeous photo’s!!!
Sharon, first I know people find dragonflies sometimes pretty – they have always scared me like crazy. Your pictures as always amazing – and your list – I hearted your list as I always have – and the last two stuck with me. One – congratulations 16 pounds only comes with great effort – or STRESS. (But something in me wants to tell you to remember that you are your heart – not the pounds – still send a little bit of that weight loss my way okay :-)and here’s my only not-hearted item from somebody’s list EVER – dragonflies – blargh 🙂 God bless you Sharon. Hope things have settled down nicely.
Your photos are beautiful! I hopped over from the MOD Squad blog hop – so glad that I found you 🙂 I’ll be back!
I found you you through your comment at Chatting at the sky and I am so glad I did! I am your newest follower. Nature photos always draw me in and yours are lovely.
