    You have a blogger blog, so you won't be affected by google friend connect going away - it only affects non-google blogs (like wordpress). :)

  27. Hello, Love your photos. I'm sure that I've been misplaced on this planet. I live on a mountain surrounded by trees, it's a cold snowy day here ; '( Yes, it's beautiful too but my heart is on that sunny, warm beach. Digging in the sand with a lovely shell, breathing in the salty air...Thanks, I need this. Joyous Wishes, Linda
