PHOTOS FOR US

A Mother and Daughter live on opposite sides of the earth. Both will celebrate a milestone age in their life during 2010. This blog will be their story for the next year, photographs of what they see, feel, love or hate.

These are their lives...

The last day of my part in this blog, I had in mind to take a picture of a sunset, but it didn't happen. Here are all the cards (unopened) that I bought with me to Florida and a few gifts....I left the others at home. By coming to the USA I extended my 60th year by 5 hrs. Who were the cards from and what was in the gifts......the last day of my blogging here so .....you will never know!

Key West has chickens on the loose.....the baby chicks and traffic are not a good mixture. This cockeral was having an afternoon nap in a tree.

Key Largo and this is the boat that was used in the Humphrey Bogart film, 'The African Queen', you can hire it out! It didn't look to seaworthy to me!

This is my water bottle at work. I drink way too much tea during the day, so I'm trying to cut back and drink more water. Thing is dunking a rich tea doesn't taste as good without the tea.


How pretty are these daisies, I leaned over our fence and there they were. Hard to get a picture, they wouldn't stay still!
