Pegasus II  coming in 2014
Shadows coming in 2013

. . . for you to go out and look for it.

This one makes me think you were peeking into another world.

Sometimes the shots just DO line themselves up. (No, no! Photos! Not glasses of Scotch/tequila!!)

Well sometimes the tequila shots do too… Pass over the lime and the salt.

You just might live in the most beautiful place on earth.

Comment by Robin

:) I might at that. It’s funny, because Hampshire *isn’t* one of the *spectacular* counties. When anyone asks/thinks of Beautiful Britain, I don’t think Hampshire is ever top of the list. But for friendly livable beauty I don’t think you can beat it.

It actually looks a lot like the area where I live(:

Someday (oh, someday) I’ll travel overseas. Plane tickets are just so darned expensive…

I will gladly take all of your rain, clouds, everything. It was 112 in fresno today. *cries* That is not LIVEABLE. How am I supposed to do things, when it is one third of normal oven temperature?!?!?!

Comment by Robin

We ARE having too much rain . . . but I will ABSOLUTELY take this weather to too hot. Poor you!

I sympathize on the rain. We’re just over a 2 week long stint where it rained every day. Coincidentally enough, just in time to keep me from weeding my blessed vegetable garden.

My sympathies…

Oh my goodness gracious. I think I need to move to Hampshire.

Although it does not have anything to do with the post, I was surfing amazon and saw Sunshine as number 5 on the bestsellers list for sci-fi and fantasy. ^^

:) That’ll be the NPR piece too. More yaaaay. :)

****But for friendly livable beauty I don’t think you can beat it.****

Friendly livable beauty has a lot to recommend it. I like that aspect of Minnesota (at least the part I live in), although for the last couple of days the weather at least has not been friendly, with wicked great thunderstorms, what the weather people refer to as damaging winds, sporadic tornadoes, etc. We need the rain, but it doesn’t have to come with so much DRAMA. Did I mention the hail? The alarms on my weather radios have had a nice workout.

These are nice pictures–the hellhounds must have been reasonably cooperative about jerking on the leads, nagging you to move on, etc.

Comment by Robin

OH I AM SO TIRED OF RAIN. We haven’t had thunderstorms–or, surprisingly, hail: I can usually guarantee hail while my delphiniums are out–but we’ve had rain and wind enough to bring trees down across the tracks in a manner suitable to cause much dancing of horses asked to thread their way through them.
