Well! There was some excitement on the beach last week!! We had two days of easterly gales and the waves were picture worthy. My nephew, Jerry, thought so anyways. He went to Point Prangle to take a few pictures and the bank let go beneath his BRAND NEW truck!!! Not good!!! Not good at all!!! I took a few pictures that day too and so I guess I will let them speak for themselves!! By, the way, Jerry is fine!!

The rest of the l/o's from St Andrews!

Here are the other 4 l/o's i got done! The one of Aidan, called Daddys Boy has some of Stephanie's handmade buttons. Check out all her goodies at http://www.mylittlebitofwhimsey.com/ She has some fabulous bees and the cutest little mushrooms!!! Oh, and the clouds are just adorable!!!

Scrapbooking in St. Andrews!

Wow!!! We had a fabulous time at Chantal's weekend scrappy getaway!! The food was fabulous, the girls were great and we had a lot of laughs!!

I was happy with the 8 l/os I got done!!!!

Been a day or so but I have a couple of new pictures I took early in the morning of Dorothy's second operation!! It is such a glorious sight, our skies, early in the morning!! Gives one great hope for the day to come!!! Some days we need more hope than others!!!

WOW!! We had a huge icestorm on the 2nd of March!! The ice laden branches are gorgeous and usually don't stay around long enough to get a lot of pictures but here it is the 5th of March and there is still a fair amount left! it is melting quickly now but not before I managed to get a few pictures!!!!

So this post is all about the pictures!!! LOL! I have to take a couple of hundred to get a few good ones!! One has to do what one has to do to get a decent picture of such a spectacular nature scene!! Everything was encased in ice!!! Oh my, I am so looking forward to a little global warming right now!!

The sun is shining

I love it when the sun comes out and the icicles begin to melt. Means Spring is coming even if the ground is still covered in snow! Our seasons are so different from each other but still they overlap. Underneath all that snow the little bulbs are beginning to stretch and groan and whisper to each other..."it's time to get moving!" The grass is shivering but still reaching down to their toes and beginning to pull up a little green coloring!!

Oh, I can't wait for Spring to get stronger and push old man winter right into next year!!!

Did this l/o for a one hour challenge over at Kristines. WWW.Creative-Scrappers.com

It's a picture of Rod and his brother Billy sitting on the hood of their dad's car stuffing themselves full of sweet cherrys!!! It must have made a great impression on Rod because he talks about how his dad brought the cherry's home on the boat from Nova Scotia. He had been over there fishing in the Rodine.
