Description

Took Barney for a puppy cup the other night, the line was so long I drove around looking at flower's in people's yards while I waited for it to go down. This lady had the most beautiful garden, I had to stop and take picture's.
Comment's welcome and have a GREAT DAY!

I thought I had sent you a comment via e-mail but am having trouble with my server. What I said was I think this is right up there with your best work.
I would know as I have over 300 pictures from the time you first started. Its been my joy to watch you grow, to see your improvment, and the hours of joy I have had in seeing you turn into a top notch photograher.
Keep up the good work, I will be here to tell you what I think, as always. #4463239

Nancy (Peaches) Harker July 01, 2007
