I ALWAYS love your pictures, Hilary. And the quotes you place with them. I like to think of you searching for just the right one to share with the picture.
Oh, I love the rain drenched flowers. And the quote, of when it's raining, the best thing is to let it rain. Thanks!
Oh Hilary ... gorgeous, just gorgeous!
Mmmm. Smells heavenly. :)
Love,love,love all these pictures.
Hilary! Your photographs are so nourishing. Thanks for taking care of us even while you are away!
If it were always June, we would miss snow, of course. For scenes like these, i think i could miss it for a long, long time, though.
