Visitor


A single red rose petal lay on the gravel of the terrace this morning. It had blown over in last night's rain from the next door terrace where a red and a yellow climbing rose have been in late season bloom.

    I was so struck by your visual today of a rose petal. It is a manifestation of St. Therese's promise of "I will let fall from heaven a shower of roses" in manifestation of a miraculous intercession. And today, I was granted a miraculous near resolution(settlement in progress) to a long and difficult problem. I want to thank you also for the regular beauty and solace that you have given me during this interim
    by viewing your website. I always make viewing your site the last thing I do on computer, to keep with me its lingering perfume.

    Beautiful image. On a totally unrelated note, the Abyssinian gladioli are still blooming - due to the incredible mild (well, downright warm!) autumn we're having - and they smell of the seaside. Salty air, seaweed and suntan lotion... :)

    This picture, for some reason, speaks to me of the Pacific Northwest... Beautiful indeed!

    That's lovely and I enjoyed Anonymous' comment. I found you through elk's blog. It looks like you have 3 blogs, that's very ambitious. I have tried to start a 2nd blog, exclusively about my cats, but I find it very hard to keep up with 2 so my original one gets most of my attention. Fortunately, my many cats are not neglected :) Your cat blog is cute.
