Our World!!


 Welcome to Our World and to one of mine!!  We’ve had such incredibly beautiful weather and even on the coast of Seattle  -- blue skies and snow covered mountains!! Doesn’t get any better!
Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day. — Henri Nouwen

Beautiful beach scenes - lovely bright skies and the snow covered mountains are a perfect backdrop.

Oh the beach and the sky! So wonderful. (The Pacific Ocean beaches are way better than the ones here really.)

That quote is perfect. Just perfect. Thank you for always choosing joy. And for hosting OW!

Beautiful, Sylvia. I still think your part of the country is the most beautiful when the skies are blue. And that has to happen at least once in February, right? Have a great week!

Thank you for the comforting quotes and sharing the lovely photos.
Thanks for your visit too.
About the "battery" chickens, I can add, that they have miserable lives, the chickens are confined in small cages and are forced to produce eggs without a break.
I hope you'll have a wonderful week!

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.
