The Way We’ve Come

The way we’ve come is sometimes fair

Sometimes filled with pain

But always there is Someone who

Will walk beside, before, after, always

He is real, He is love, He is there.

Fairytale Flora

Growing in a magical garden, bigger than life, set apart for a time while we walked there…flora from a fairytale.   May your Monday be green and growing, if not in colours then in love.   Slainte, Lisa

*All pictures taken at Blarney Castle Gardens, County Cork Ireland.  Although a huge tourist attraction, it is definitely worth a visit even for the gardens alone.  🙂

Biggest Fake Rocks I’ve Ever Seen

DSCN0645

These giant fake rocks are in the port of St. Maarten in the Caribbean.  This port was enhanced after big storms destroyed much of the port infrastructure in 1995.  These composite rocks help to protect the port from further water damage.  Although I admire their ingenuity and practicality, they just aren’t the same as real rocks.  No crags, no dents, no character.  Poor rocks that aren’t rocks.  They’re trying their best though; I guess I should cut them some slack.  😉  Have a wonderful weekend!  Lisa
