Iceland

Having just visited what I considered the most beautiful country, Switzerland, then come to visit  Iceland.

My first impression was gosh, how ugly is this country!!!  There were nothing but miles and miles of

Lava.  Grey and black….

However, behind these miles of ugliness, I came to appreciate the unique beauties presented to me in one and ½ day excursions.  Afterwards, I said to myself, I will like to come back again to see more of Iceland.

National Harbor

Located in Maryland, National Harbor is a waterfront getaway just outside of down own Washington, DC. This is a place for hang out with your lover hand in hand, with your friends or families visiting you from out of town... walking around with no worries, cool breeze in the spring and early summer, enjoying window shopping and trying out different restaurants.

Outside of my window - Robin

A Robin out side of my window on a raining day: A poem from Noël Coward As I awoke this morning When all sweet things are born A robin perched upon my sill To signal the coming dawn. The bird was fragile, young and gay And sweetly did it sing The thoughts of happiness and joy Into my heart did bring. I smiled softly at the cheery song Then as it paused, a moment’s lull, I gently closed the window And crushed its fucking skull. http://www.noelcoward.net/html/sketches.html Find it in Noel Coward, Collected Verse -1999 Methuen edition.

Wild Blackberry

In a beautiful spring day, fresh air, warm breeze. Then came the lovely flowers of wild black berry in their glory. I hope you can take time in your busy day to smell and appreciate this beauty from my neck of the woods.
