Your cardinal photograph on PWs site is so rich and full of beauty that I followed the photo to your blogs and have been relishing your photography and writing all morning.<br /><br />Do you know how gifted you are? Do you know how fortunate you are to live in such a beautiful, beautiful place? I live in Kansas, where any little hill is a rarity, and our trees don't grow all that tall.<br /><br />I signed up to follow your blog, and will look forward to it every day. <br /><br />I think part of what pulls at me so much is that my "people" (mom, dad, extended family, favorite childhood neighbors, - who are all gone now-) were just like this. They watched birds, took long walks, would go get someone to share a leaf, or sunset, or insect with, and I just miss them so much sometimes.<br /><br />We spend a lot of time with our adult children and people their age. They are alway rushing and their eyes are always on a computer (like mine are right now :-), or a cell phone. And they don't have time.<br /><br />I miss my people. I found you, though.nancy in kshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07023212121283766673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-35462158562211199792010-01-01T11:36:37.365-05:002010-01-01T11:36:37.365-05:00I'm not surprised that PW showcased your photo...I'm not surprised that PW showcased your photo.

That recipe should come with a warning: "Beware!

I was soooooo looking forward to sharing a fire and the new year with him last night. Alas...the flu bug hit him, and all he could think of was being sick by himself! So, I did what I usually do...sleep in front of the fire by myself and wait for the neighbor's fireworks to awaken me. It's a sure fire thing. :)<br /><br /><a href="mailto:suzette@his.com" rel="nofollow">Suzette</a>Suzettehttp://www.girlfromtexas.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-57875243884114718772010-01-01T09:37:38.128-05:002010-01-01T09:37:38.128-05:00Happy New Year Kate!

Congrats on your following and celebrating your 2nd year of blogging!<br /><br />As for our New Years plans, it was quite uneventful (albeit safe). I babysat our 3 grandchildren during the day while their parents were working. At 4pm Doughboy and I beat the dinner rush at Chili's, then meandered home where we watched Julie/Julia in front of the fire with our 3 pups. In bed and asleep by 10pm as we are both battling head colds/sinus infections.<br /><br />Happy New Year, Kate!!!!!Debra (a/k/a Doris, Mimi)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12703142765614822707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-81970643373010919102010-01-01T07:45:56.131-05:002010-01-01T07:45:56.131-05:00Beautiful pics Kate!

Drinking a glass of wine with a bird on my head, checking up on all my bloggy friends and ones that for some reason, lack blogs. I'm still snowbound but everyone in this area is dealing with the same sort of thing. Oh well. It's a quiet night, a very bright one because of all the snow, and I guess I'm thankful for a lot of things.<br /><br />Best wishes for a happy new year to you and your husband and of course, George. :-)<br /><br />MariaMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16769488099776508540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-70470769612607038052009-12-31T21:48:29.944-05:002009-12-31T21:48:29.944-05:00Staying in tonight with the kids while the husband...Staying in tonight with the kids while the husband works.
