It was a very good day....

Valentine's Day was especially nice for me this year....DH brought home this beautiful arrangement...


....along with an extra gift....


...to my complete surprise, I found this...


.....besides being adorably cute, my DH told me that he thought it would be useful to carry when I attend a garden lecture or such (how thoughtful!), and that the fabric pattern is called (drum roll)...Hope Garden....Ten percent of the purchase price goes toward breast cancer research.

Hope you also enjoyed a special day.

Tomorrow...I plan to show some pictures with my other lens, a zoom lens with image stabilizer...if I thought the macro was something...oh my, this one is the bomb!

Yes, yes...I will get back to that symposium write up (I'm afraid it will be rather...long...)...but in the meantime, we can have a bit of fun.
