I purchased this orchid out of bloom X-mas day. Now it's blooming these HUGE white blooms!!!!

Let's see.........I have a moose that is a statue! This is from a trip with friends. We were in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and this statue was in the library.

Murraysmom - I recently started to select favorite photos as desktop wallpaper. I have the photos on a 1 minute rotation, so I always have something interesting to look at. I would love to include the photo that you posted of your "little guys" a few weeks ago, if you don't mind. I can't locate the photo - both dogs are in the picture and I believe they are on a patio or porch. I remember commenting on the photo at the time, because I liked it so much and if you are able to post it again, I would really appreciate it!

Impressive photos today. The chateaux is incredible. Love the Czech kitchen - it looks so cozy and inviting. Alisande, I have really enjoyed your series of gull photos. They also remind me of the movie, The Birds. Beautiful sunrise photos, Moni. I especially like the cloud formations in the second one. Nicole, your homestead shots are beautiful and eerie at the same time. Wonderful butterfly shot, gyr-falcon. You did a fantastic job of capturing all of the little details like antennae, legs and markings.
