And now lets see What kind of Wild, Wonderful World we can Whip up!! And here are my W Words for the  day!  W is for Wave, Waffle, Wagons, covered and otherwise! W is for Weeping Willows, Winter,Welsh Corgi,  and the main W of all today!  WINE!!!

I love the wave and the willow - beautiful colours and shapes. The wine looks pretty good, too! Hope you've got plenty of your favourite tipple for the coming festivities and loved ones to share your laughter (and wine!!)

I can almost see the willow tree moving in the breeze! You do such a great job with these collages every week. Kudos for another Wonderful Week.

What wonderful Ws - I love your weeping willow and the wine. It's well and truly winter here - a white winter wonderland.
thanks for your comment on my blog - I've never seen a woodcock before either - and for your good wishes. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.

Joy said...

Love the contrast between the dappled shade of summer coming through the willow, and the starkness of winter in Washington.
I'll raise a glass of wine to toast you good health and a merry Christmas

Amanda said...

I love that willow tree shot, Sylvia! The branches flow into the shadows so gracefully.

That must be one of Queen Elizabeth's short legged corgis when he was little.

Maude Lynn said...

My daughter is loving that Corgi!

Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪 said...

I came back again via Reader's wil's site that you wish to visit Australia. Australia is my second home.

When my mum first arrived to live in Oz, they were living in the hills of the Gold coast. My brother had a big section, almost a small farm. But he didn't grow anything.

Mum made dad dig a big patch for her and she grew corn. Mum used the precious Oz water, and when the corn was 3 inches tall, mum was so happy.

My sis-in-law ( Kiwi gal) heard mum went ##@@$$!!!!. She thought my parents were arguing.

Mum was cursing the kangaroos who ate all her crop.

Yogi♪♪♪ said...

I had to laugh. Only you could pair winter with a willow tree. Fire and Ice, and then you ended up with wine, instead of whine. Great job.

Serline said...

I only have eyes for that... Welsh Corgi! So sweet ;-)

Unknown said...

Delightful "w"s. I must play as it sounds so fun.

Martha Z said...

All that and wine too, I'll drink to that!

magiceye said...

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.
