Mandarin Orange Monmday


The is Memorial Day Weekend in the US and we are all pausing in our busy lives to say Thank You to those who serve, to those who no longer serve but are still with us and, especially, to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice.  If we could achieve Peace, we wouldn't have to keep adding names to the list of men and women who have given their lives so we could be free.  This is my prayer ... Peace.

Peace would be perfect! If only humans were not so greedy maybe we could live in peace. :)

Well I have no idea how you did this shot however it symbolises Peace to the world. Hope you are having a good weekend.

Peace would be wonderful. And I love your phoenix dove too.

Beautiful dove, it looks like molten glass. It would be wonderful if wars would cease now, indeed.

I really like this image, Andrea, and the colors are just gorgeous. Super editing. I agree it would be just wonderful if all men could finally agree to live in peace. Well, it's Monday morning and I have finished my work weekend. Thank goodness. Today started out sunny, but has since changed to gray and rainy. Hopefully, the sun will come out again later this morning. We were hoping to have a barbeque later today. Maybe we still will.

It must be nice having your son be able to help you with the yard work. If I didn't have Joe to help me, I wouldn't have such a pretty garden or lawn. He does a lot to help me around the house and yard. Do be careful working on the hill. We don't heal so quickly any more.

I think before I have my nap, I'll work on the new afghan a bit. The colors are working up beautifully. This is good because I have to make two of this one. I'm off now, so you have a wonderful day with your family. Hugs, Edna B.
