Yes, it looks very restful and quiet. I had never heard of it before, so I did a little check, and when I saw that aerial photo, I just knew you and Marissa would enjoy seeing the lake from that perspective.

I think I forgot to say 'thank you' for your compliments on my opening graphic this morning. I will let my excuse be that I was in pain and not thinking clearly. Please accept a big 'thank you' hug from me to each of you. :-)
Unfortunately, I still am in pain because I just now FINALLY got the medication. It took ALL day to get a prescription called into the pharmacy and filled! I love my doctor, but his office staff leaves a great deal to be desired. :-(

Thanks, Jaycee.
The blue jean dog was glittery but I saved it as a jpg so it could be reduced. I thought he was really cute.
I’m doing good; I have been busy and not very talkative.
Thank you for everything, Jaycee.

Thank you for the lovely picture of Arizona, Meg.
We are thinking of Arizona for our family vacation this summer. We would like to look at the Prescott area again. We think Marissa would enjoy the Grand Canyon.
Hope you had a Terrific Thursday!

I was a teenager. when I first saw the Grand Canyon..It had been a long hot drive from Texas and I was not at all excited..We saw what was termed the little grand canyon on the drive up from Flagstaff..I stood there in awe, dropping my bored teenager mode...We stayed at Bright Angel Lodge..where I found another teenager to dance with and pal around with in the evening ..I loved it.

Meg,
Thank you so much for your prayers. I would love to say we are doing better, but not yet. Grandson Kobe has had fever since Saturday, and hubby still feels down with cough and fever! I do feel better just weak...
By the way, Hubby grew up in Arizona so that photo is familiar to him , for sure~!
