If This is Earth, What's Heaven Like ....

A friend sent these to me today and they are so beautiful I had to share the thought and the beauty.

Lavendar farm and tree.

Breithorn Peak in Switzerland

That field of lavender... OMG!!! I used to live in Switzerl and the beauty of it really is amazing. But I think I like the last one best...now we know where baby rainbows come from! LOL

I love your title btw, and will very likely use it the next time I'm eating chocolate cake or feeling equally 'heavenly'. Thanks for a happy Friday Sylvia!

Sylvia, that Lavender farm photo is incredible. I could live with that view for a long time.

I just got an e-mail from my friends in Switzerland and they said the flowers were blooming, but the snow was still in the mountains; just like that lovely photograph. I was there in May one year and those yellow flowers were all over every meadow in Europe. We went up to see the deep snow in the Alps. Someday I may post those pictures.

I too have friends spending a year in Switzerland. I am dazzled by their photos! Lavender is lovely in big and small doses...it is my favorite scent! I look forward each year to the Lavender festivals here in the northwest..

Lovely pics indeed. For a moment I thought you had your seven league boots on.

The lavender farm is almost impossibly purple!

Your word verification is 'restle'!
I do hope your day doesn't add a 'w' to it!

That is the chicken said...

AMAZING shots ... the first is wondrous indeed as purple is my favorite color. It would be PERFECT for Saturday's Photo Hunt!!!

That was really something. I didn´t knew lavender could look so unreal.

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.
