Lovely quotes:
“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.” ~ Mary Oliver

"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." ~ Dalai Lama

“Time is a created thing. To say ‘I don’t have time’ is to say, ‘I don’t want to’.” ~ Lao Tzu

circle / town tourist

January 27th, 2009 by Fond of Snape

Hosted by the lovely Pickled Beef!

Circle(s)

This is the view as you walk towards the center of town from my house.

And here’s the center of town, from another angle

This used to be a candy store where all the kids would go before school

And this is the dump, where I loved to go with my Dad on the weekend. Long since filled in…it’s supposed to one day become a park.

   Those “circle” shots are amazing, girl!!! And I love the rainbow shot. Too bad those pesky electric lines get in the way.

    Wow! I love your circles! They are everything I wanted to accomplish and more… (I sort of failed this week — posted, but FAIL) and your town looks lovely. (Now I wonder where you live!)
