Glass grows?

Catch anything in there?

A perfect drop of water.  Can you find it?

Look! More orchids!

If you’d like to see more of my Phipp’s pictures, or my other pictues, then just go here.

I’ve gathered that the theme this week for Photo Hunt is wrinkled.  So I found some wrinkled objects on my adventure this morning.

The petals have wrinkles.

The leaves and the flowers have wrinkles.

Look! More wrinkles - red this time.

Big wrinkles this time!

Rocky wrinkles.

Wrinkled clouds.

Do fish have wrinkles?  They’re in the water all the time.

Good evening everyone! I’m sure by now all you loyal readers are just dying for a pic of my guy. Well, I now have one. This was taken in his truck on August 4, 2008. It was the last time I saw him that weekend and the last time I’ll see him until, oh, the end of September. Its really hard being apart, but I know he’s doing what he needs to do and I know that he loves God and me. He’s a wonderful guy and has done a whole bunch to help me become a better person. What else can I say? We’re still in that wonderful in-love phase (don’t know what I’m talking about? Check out Gary Chapman’s The Five Love Languages. We both highly recommend it) so there’s a bit of the rose colored glasses. But I know he gets grumpy when he can’t get to a shower and I know he has a tendency to fall asleep on me in the mornings when I call. He doesn’t always say the right thing at the right time, but then again,he doesn’t have to. We’ve both been hurt badly so we’re taking it kinda slow. Still, I’m very excited about this relationship. Can you tell?

Here’s where you can find the photos from our trip to Virginia Beach (many years ago) and of the three pets (taken in the last couple of days): Daisy’s Photos
