Evening Wisdom, Summer, Beauty

 

If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.
Lewis Carroll

 

Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose.
Tom Kraus

 

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain

I know I am but summer to your heart, and not the full four seasons of the year.
Edna St. Vincent Millay

Hi Sylvia, I've been enjoying your blog for some time now--both the photos and the quotes, plus the humor. I'm handing out a couple of awards and your name is on one, if you care to stop by my place and pick it up. You do indeed have a lovely blog.

I wish I were on that lovely shore today. It is supposed to reach 102*. When we are in the triple digits I long to be on the coast.

My favourite is the Mark Twain quote. With my camera I try to explore, dream and discover. I don't think you necessarily have to travel the globe to do that. Right now I'm searching my part of the world to explore it in depth. ;-)

Great shots and I love the quotes that went with them. The only thing I'll miss about starting my job is that my camera and I will not get out to explore as much as I have been.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
