The Days Are Over....

The days of Christmas are over, everything is going back to "normal"....


When I'm 80 and sitting in a rocking chair listening to the Rolling Stones, there is absolutely no way I'm going to feel old or forget my younger days.

It Felt Like a Day in May...

Camellia trees are still blooming in the gardens of Boone Hall Plantation in Charleston

Camellia blossom in December

I have visited yesterday Boone Hall Plantation out side of Charleston. It was a lovely and 78F warm December afternoon, no jackets were necessary and wearing sandals again on my feet. It felt more like a nice day late in May and never ever December the 17th. There were still some Camellia trees with beautiful blossoms, small Azalea bushes with flowers on and tea roses with such a sweet smell, you could not miss them.

More photos about Boone Hall Plantation will come - stay tuned.

I have never been able to see myself as fitting into one category, and I have never been able to limit my contact with people to one group of people.

Pretty Garden in Fall

Gardening, I told myself, is the most sociable of hobbies. The very nature of one's field of activities demands an audience. No one wants flowers to blush unseen or waste their sweetness.

We say we love flowers...

“We say we love flowers, yet we pluck them.
We say we love trees, yet we cut them down.
And people still wonder why some are afraid when told they are loved.”

Isn't she beautiful....?

I decided that if I could paint that flower in a huge scale,
you could not ignore its beauty.

I would give you all the world

This Flower Lyrics


Well this flower is my soul
But it's not half of what I owe
I should give you every rose that I ever grew
But take this one here for a start
And you can keep it in your heart
I have everything I need because of you

Well if my life was long enough
to pack up everything I love
I would do just that and give it all to you
But it's impossible to pay
All the things that you gave away
Si this flower I give will have to do

All the flowers growing wild
For ten thousand lonely miles
It's not near enough to give you what I should
So I will owe you for a while
Maybe longer than my life
I would give you all the world if I could

Artist: Kasey Chambers,
Song: This Flower Lyrics
Album: The Captain

Do You Know The Weekend Dance ?

Enjoy your weekend!



I can't wait for the weekend to begin

I'm workin' all week long
I dream the days away
I wanna' sing my song
So let the music play

I have to get my kicks and fly tonight
And when the clock strikes 6 on Fri-day night
I need to blow it all away

I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin

I make it - what I can
I try I try
I'm shakin' - up my plan
And I get by

I'm savin' all my soul
And all my pain
So I can lose control
On Saturday
I'm gonna' blow it all away

I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin

Spanish Moss

Spanish Moss hanging on a tree - doesn't look like out of a fairytale book?

I have found a very nice lyric to this picture of Spanish moss:



Spanish Moss

Let go darlin’
I can feel the night wind call
Guess I’d better go
I like you more than half as much
As I love your Spanish moss
Spanish moss hangin’ down
Lofty as the southern love we’ve found
Spanish moss
Keeps on followin’ my thoughts around
Georgia pine and ripple wine
Memories of Savannah summertime
Spanish moss
Wish you knew what I was sayin’

So I’m rollin’ north thinkin’
Of the way things might have been
If she and I could have changed it all somehow

Spanish moss hangin’ down
Lofty as the sycamore you’ve found
Spanish moss
Keeps on followin’ my thoughts around
Georgia pine and ripple wine
Kisses mixed with moonshine and red clay
Spanish moss
Wish you knew what I was sayin’

So I’m rollin’ north thinkin’
Of the way things might have been
If she and I could have changed it all somehow

Let go darlin’
I can feel the night wind call
The devil take the cost
I like the way your kisses flow and I love your Spanish moss
