Nice weather means positive mood

Today is a beautiful day, we could be in June. Clear skies, warm air, it made our walk in the park really enjoyable. It's a amazing how a nice weather can lift my spirit.

A walk in the park wouldn't be a walk in the park without a photo of a tree. This one is also part of my Top 10. I love the ivy around him. It makes him shiny and shivering trough the slightest breeze.



This bud is close to bursting.


This is a pretty nasty plant with big thorns. Even the girls avoid walking on it, but from close up, it looks much more interesting and quite beautiful.



Project 365+1 - Day 83 : Clock

When she was 5 or 6 Sophie developed a passion for penguins so one day I made this clock for her. She still has it in her bedroom.


By the way have you noticed that most advertisements on watches or clocks show the time of 10:10 ? And if so, do you know why ?

The reason is that at 10:10 the shape made by the needles looks like a smile. For the same reason, you will never see a clock advertised on 8:20

Take care everybody, xxx
