Oh my, you have found the PERFECT connection for showing your photos. I love these views through windows. The yard looks so untamed and wonderful, I want to LIVE there! Green out every window. This is SO COOL, Lynette! Just lovely. Now you and your camera will be even more on the hunt:)I cant wait to see what comes next!
