You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. Mark Twain

This morning when I got up there were two foxes out in our back yard, the black one was in the boat eating my sons worms and red one was hunting ducks in the water. Well, I set down in our office where I was taking the pictures from and witnessed an interesting episode. The red fox got one of the ducks and ripped her into a pieces then carried  each piece separately somewhere into the trees.1a2a3a1

Beading Hearts Of Loveland

Things are going well, my husband is coming back tonight from Orlando, FL so I had a little party last night for few of my girlfriends. Just girls, cheese cake, snacks and being silly and laughing at ourselves. As Shirley MacLaine once said “The person who knows how to laugh at himself will never cease to be amused.”

I went to the beading meeting with few of the girls from Loveland week ago. They call themselves “Beading Hearts Of Loveland” And they really are sweet hearts, all of them.  They meet twice a month and they have their own yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BeadingHeartsofLoveland/
I know there must be more beaders out there in a beautiful land of Loveland CO, so girls come join us, the more the merrier!

The photo I am posting is a beautiful work of my dear friend Louisa from Israel. Enjoy!d7aad79ed795d7a0d794-007
