1. Here are a couple more.

I hate to see KitchWitch feeling bad. That just ain't right. The Lounge needs her and I need her too bad to let that happen for long.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Thanks, Jamastiene!

Very nice......

Now where in heck did she go?

:shrug:

[Jamastiene]

Thanks, CaliforniaPeggy. I think she's here now. Hey, KitchenWitch.

Hope you start feeling better soon.

[KitchenWitch]

3. Ahhhh beach!

In a little more than a week, I will see beach!

Something to look forward to.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. THERE you are!

I was afraid you'd left for the afternoon.......

I took this one back when my camera was brand new......

I think you like it!

Hope you feel better, too, my dear.........



:loveya: :hug:

14. Lake Minnetonka does not have a beach?

What about Cedar Lake, Medicine Lake, White Bear Lake? There's gotta be a beach somewhere in the metro area. Even Smithville Lake has a beach, and it's just a damned river.

[KitchenWitch]

15. I am very partial to bodies of water I cannot see across

Have to go to Mille Lacs for that.

[hfojvt]

19. Nah, just Cedar Lake

during a big blizzard or on a foggy morning.

[KitchenWitch]

20. LOL

I do like Cedar Lake the best out of all the lakes in Minneapolis proper.

[hfojvt]

21. I think that is where I went biking.

Except I went around the lake about six times before I figured out I was going the wrong way. When you are going the right way there are lots of signs that say "one way" but when you are going the wrong way, there is not one sign that says "wrong way". At least that was true 20 years ago.

[KitchenWitch]

22. Are you sure it wasn't Lake Harriet or even Lake of the Isles?

I do not remember there being a bike trail around the entirety of Cedar Lake.

[hfojvt]

23. could be, it was long ago and far away

there may be a smaller lake closer to the campus that does not show up on my map.

5. That's gorgeous.

And the cloudy sky just adds the right mood to it. :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. My dear CMW!

Thank you so much......

I LOVE how the sun glitters on the water......and that's just the way it looked, too.....

I have not altered the picture in any way.....

:loveya: :hug:

[Call Me Wesley]

8. I never thought

of you altering the picture. The sun glitter on the water is just gorgeous, and the bright sunlight on the horizon too.

You capture the moments just perfectly. I'm not good with digital photography yet, and I wis I had a negative scanner so I could put some of my pics up when I still thought of my as a photographer.

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. No worries, my dear CMW!

I didn't mean to sound defensive....just stating a fact......

It isn't hard to be good when the scenery is so wonderful!

I appreciate your compliments a lot, you know!


:loveya: :hug:

[Call Me Wesley]

18. The scenery is quite wonderful,

but as I said, you do have to catch the moment, and you certainly are blessed with capturing these moments.

And these are not empty compliments, honestly. Sometimes I do think since I needed to do it once professionally (the photography) I still resist it somewhat.

7. Huh. I figured this would be a really big

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. REALLY!

And have you, sir, EVAH seen me using a paddle? Well?

I might have, but not recently.......Sheesh......

I am an ARTIST!

Do you like my pic?


:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

10. That is gorgeous

Leather tooling is one of my favorite folk art forms.

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. Knew you'd like the leather

Makes it even kinkier, huh? :evilgrin:

[KitchenWitch]

13. ...

:rofl:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

16. OK, you two.......

GET A ROOM, WILL YA?

:evilgrin:

[Jamastiene]

17. Hehehee.
