OUR HOME - ON ST PATRICK'S DAY
Oh you should have been here this morning!
These are so pretty, not sure what they are called, but I will look it up.
I know this is called the Sandpaper plant, and it is a climber.
Then I swung my camera down to the River and I saw what I thought was a bright light of some kind, then I realized it was the sun just coming up and shining on a Palm, and I kinda wanted the whole world to see it. Happy I saw all the beautiful things in Nature, dulled the snake imagine - but then some folks would have loved to have witnessed that - not this little duck!
Don't forget to click on the images.
We get up around 5:30, my husband called me outside
"Quick, run out here and bring the camera and DON'T YELL"
Hanging half down from our roof was a SNAKE with a rat with its tail still swishing, disappearing into the Snake's mouth. I took a photo, and ran back inside and locked the doors. The picture is very blurry and my Grandkids will be disappointed. Then a little bit later I ventured out and saw the beauty of a very still, peaceful morning.

CRAFT PARTY
THANK YOU SPOTLIGHT we had such a great day at the Craft Party and it was fun being able to teach so many Crafters how to use The Butterfly Loom.
We were able to make enough squares for a Throw for a little girl and her baby sister, and next Craft Party we will make a Throw for the little brother. These little children were caught up in the Grantham Floods, and we thought they might like their very own Throws. It was a pleasure to be able to walk around and help folk choose 3 bags full of yarn for their very own Throw.
Thanks for a great day.

INVITATION ROYAL WEDDING
I think I'll hurry to finish the Pink Daisy scarf I'm
creating on the Small Loom, so I can wear it to the
Royal Wedding. My Invitation hasn't arrived yet.,
a bit worried - has anyone else received their Invitation?
I do like the top Scarf though, it's intriguing.
BUT you know, I would rather spend a day at Spotlight
with my real friends...

CREEPING AROUND
We live in the sub-Tropics and have experienced
20" rain during the last month. So lovely
to find these beautiful flowers poking out
through foliage this morning, creeping here there
and everywhere. Notice the grey sky, and the
weather man said "more rain".
