HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

To ALL my nice blog friends here and there and all around the globe. It is always great to have you here visiting, commenting and I hope to see you back here in 2013 also. 

I hope and wish for YOU (and for me too) that it will be a good one, a happy one and for the most I wish it will be a wonderful and peaceful new year!

Love you all!

The Lazy Frog

We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.

Hi my friends,

Again, thanks for all your kind comments.
Today I have a humorous photo of a frog sculpture I have photographed yesterday, I call him "The Lazy Frog". We took a little ride out in country side. David felt good again for the first time - Hallelujah!

Tomorrow I'll have my "Wordless Sunday" photo up - come back and see it and comments are - like always - very much appreciated.

See'ya tomorrow! Enjoy your weekend.
Susanne

My Wordless Sunday #40

The Frog

We think too small, like the frog at the bottom of the well. He thinks the sky is only as big as the top of the well. If he surfaced, he would have an entirely different view.

When you were born, you cried
and the world rejoiced.
Live your life
so that when you die,
the world cries and you rejoice.

my NEW CALENDARS for 2009 are available to buy

While we are preparing for Hurricane Hanna....

While we here in Charleston are preparing for Hurrican Hanna to come tomorrow Friday, making landfall at the Coast of the Carolinas, I'll leave you here with some nice photos from a pretty park in Summerville, SC.

This park is way more beautiful in spring time when everywhere the Azaleas are blooming. That's why has this park also the name "Azalea Park".

There are little ponds with cute sculptures, like this frog.

I love frogs! Should I kiss him now...? :-)

Or this pretty sculpture of the girl with a bird in her hand....

The girl sculpture is overlooking the park area and in the little pond here I have seen many gold fishes swimming around

The bench and the dog - there is a story behind that dog, you can read it on the website link below

Today, Azalea Park features butterfly ponds, an amphitheater,
ornamental bridges, a water garden, artistic
sculptures and gazebos. The Cuthbert Community
Center, built in 1975 and named for former Mayor
Cuthbert, stands in the center of the park. The park
and the mini-gardens within it are usually at their peak
of beauty during the Flowertown Festival

Azalea Park is also the site of the Flowertown Festival, held annually on the first week of April. This event, which features arts & crafts, food, entertainment, rides and commercial booths, draws approximately 300,000 to Summerville.
