Today I share these
wild pink roses captured

by my sister who

travels full time with
her husband.  This Spring they spent

two months wandering

through Alaska on
their own as a follow up

to an earlier

month long ‘guided’ trip
with an RV Caravan

tour that ‘whetted’ their

appetite for more
time to meander on their

own … unscheduled.

Originals first
‘tweaked’ a bit with PSE

(just because I can)

then Poster Edges
fav’rite filter currently

‘cuz I like the look.

My Avatar

I'm a happily retired teacher. Originally blogging as storyteller, I've changed my avatar early in 2010 to reflect my recent growing interest in photography. You might recognize me from one of my three original Blogger-based sites:

Small Reflections

Sacred Ruminations

Blog Rolls, Bling and Blurbs

If you don't, click to learn more about me.

Welcome to my first WordPress site. I hope you'll look around, leave me a comment or two, and check back as often as time permits.

Hugs and blessings,
