I get by with a little help from my friends!

Side yard

Hi Friend! This was how it looked outside this morning when I got up. I did add a cooling filter to emphasize the coldness. All the roads are melting with the slightly higher temps.


Outside our front door


Since coming back into the blogging fold, I have had some difficulty ...actually a lot of difficulty...hair tearing out time. My friend Tammy of http://simplesouthernhappiness.blogspot.com/
came to my rescue. She was calming in my storm.  Thank you, Tammy! It took several hours trying to figure out how to re-do my header and make sure that it was centered. Adding to the confusion, I have Windows 8 which is so different from Windows XP that I had before.


The birds are feeding heavily at Cafe Wilson.
Here is my experimental shot of a bird, a female Cardinal, I think. I shot it through a tinted window in my sun room with my longest lens, a 18-105 mm that came with my Nikon D90. To have enough light, I upped my ISO to 2500. Do you think I need a new lens? :o)

Stay warm and safe. May the peace and love of Jesus be with you today and always!

Friendship Tomatoes


 Hi Shug, how are you this hot summer day? Keeping cool I hope!

We have some lovely friends from church; Matt and Colleen. Matt is the tomato king. Every year he is the first in the neighborhood to have a great harvest of tomatoes and he loves to share his bounty with friends.

Look at these juicy gems!


He even thought to put in some that are in various stages of ripeness, for later.

And look at the clever way that he presented them to us: gift wrapped, almost.


Thanks, Matt, for your kindness in this gesture. We already had tomato sandwiches twice today! Is there anything better, with mayo, lettuce and white bread?


Peace and joy of Jesus be with you always!
