Have a great weekend
I hope that you are taking advantage of the summer to enjoy your family and friends.
This is a busy weekend
for photography in my area with the Bix 7 Road Race in Davenport, Iowa and the end of the Ragbri Bike Ride in Le Claire, Iowa.
Because of this you will
see me behind the lens of my camera and not at any art shows this weekend.
Have
a safe and fun July weekend.

that it's a synonym
for 'hope.'

what you are really saying is,

Do you make time in life?
"Time is a created thing. To say 'I don't have time'
is to say 'I don't want to.” --Lao Tzu
Peace
Creating a photograph in the veiw finder of my camera
or fitting all the petals together in a new flower are
creating peace to me. How do you find peace each day.
Do you Garden, Ride Horses, Play Golf?
"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Think
Peace Today,
Diane

Pussy
Willows Author Unknown There are willow pussies
Clad in furry goods,
And a robin singing
In the
maple woods.
There's a springing crocus,
And a budding larch,
Who'd ever think the Springtime
Came along
in March.
Flowers Flower, flower grow for me,
Become a flower
from a seed,
Grow your roots and a stem,
Let the water come right in. Flower, flower you are true,
You make me happy
when I am blue,
You became a flower from a seed,
You did all that just for me. Olivia Taylor
The
Tiger Lily has a strong, sweet and distinctively lily smell. Besides producing a stunning spectacle, most parts of this plant
are edible.
