Lovely pictures, Colleen...I love the one of your Mom...she looks so content sitting there...And the one of the mountains in the background and flowers in the for....BEAUTIFUL!!!
I had not heard that Ford said that about his party....I sure wish he had said some of these things while he was alive and especially about the war in Iraq....it might have made some slight difference, you know?

Ah, the Blue Ridge. I always miss it so when I leave the area. It's such a tug on my heart. Yours too?

Beauty leftovers! Your mom looks fabulous...very with it. I love her pants. They look like some my mom made.

My mom's pants are from Winter Sun Clothing here in Floyd. They make hand dyed batik cotton clothing, which is made in Eucador where the owner lives part of the year. Here's a link http://www.wintersuninc.net/fashion/NEWaboutUS.htm

*** Love the pic of the girl with the Attitude...makes me wish I had a tiara -- would it be too much to wear one in Lowes?

So many pictures, so little time... I wonder what will happen to all of our digital pictures after we are gone? Our kids and grandkids won't have to go through old dusty musty picture albums and wonder who the folks are.

YAY! you like my snake the best! It isn't my favorite one but I'm glad omeone likes it best. I'll make a post very soon documenting all of my tattoos...they're such a big part of me you know?
