Drifting through life

  The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles.

 Long ago, Kim of Frog ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if overseas bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child (who is currently taking a break) and I occasionally join in as do a few others. Andrew is one.  Messymimi is another. Drop in to them and have a look. the next few weeks we will be seeing photos taken by "no-one" with her phone camera in Adelaide's Botanic Gardens. I'm sure you will all agree she has a very good eye for composition. the lake where ducks and turtles live the lily pond which is home to many frogs inside the hollow tree the hollow tree more next week 😀
