Today I join my fellow bloggers in "serving up a slice"
for hosting this meeting place each day in March
and for nurturing our writing lives.
One week ago today.
A walk I’ll never forget and yet I still haven’t written about it. Does this happen to you? Something you really want to slice
about keeps getting pushed to the back burner because you want more time to
capture the moment. I don’t have
more time today, but I’m afraid that this memory will fade away if I don’t make
the attempt. So here’s my
imperfect stab at sharing a splendid slice of my life.
When Coleen is in town, we always try to squeeze in a
walk. I called Jan, texted Coleen,
and waited for her to name the time . . . 10:00 a.m. Yikes, it was
cooler than it’s been recently, but I was willing to make the sacrifice for her
(even though our afternoon promised to be much warmer). Besides, Coleen lives in Canada now,
and forty degrees is a virtual heat wave for her.
We met on the lid and headed down the
hill. My good friends indulged my frequent stops for
pictures. We didn’t win any awards
for speed or calories burned, but oh the pleasures of this stroll with two dear friends! Words can't describe our walk, so please scroll along with us and enjoy my amateur attempts to capture a morning of splendor.
Love it! Such beautiful pictures & dear friends! What a lovely morning!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for your visit next month and time to walk with you!
DeleteVery pretty! My favorite picture is the sixth.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures. So great that you have friends who are willing to stop so you can take them..t would have been a shame to miss these sights.
ReplyDeleteJealous - blue skies, greenery, blossoms. it will be a while before we see all three together in my part of the world!
ReplyDeleteA stroll with two good friends.....How glorious Ramona! I feel hopeful that we'll get somewhere close to that beautiful in Michigan.
ReplyDeleteWhat great memories! And, the pictures in your post are just what I needed to see to remind me that spring is right around the corner, hopefully!
ReplyDeleteI will never stop loving your pictures, Ramona. But the best part of this slice is your love for your friends. Lucky you are!
ReplyDeleteI love your pictures! I can't wait for spring now. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe only green in my world is the envy I am feeling. What spectacular photos of blooming! And then the bald eagles, oh my! Wonderful Ramona!
ReplyDeleteLove that pic of the old wooden gate Ramona. Looks like a beautiful day, and all those flowers! Your post captured the moment beautifully. :)
