I'm going to have to check out Aunt Jewel…she sounds perfectly delightful! Your use of photography with your writing is like what I do. I'm pleased to know I'm following in your footsteps.

I'm enjoying writing about her. <br /><br />One of the reasons we bought the house we're in is because it has five ancient pecan trees. I've never had such nice shade so close to the house before. Even on the hottest day, like today, it's cool under there.Bobbi A.

We got lots of wonderful inspiration.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.com
