  2. That is so much fun. We have had such a cool season in My Muskoka. I am content and write poetry. I liked yours, too.

  15. My old computer wouldn't let me enjoy the u tube viideo but I think the balloon photo is fantastic!

  16. Perfect accompaniment of normally light balloons weighted down in this case. The pastel colors make me vote for enjoying the day, but then the devil in me wants to pop them.

    Got a blank spot.

  29. Very lovely image of the balloons, Sandy.
    I am jumping from one thing to another, but I think everyone must try to improve the day, or rather, to change the world, in one's own small way, with his strong ideas and behaviours.

    I have not WW so you need not return here. You might want to figure out where Mr. Linky went on the OSI page??

    I like your thinking below, I left this comment:
    Sandy, you have lovely thoughts of your parents' idle moments. I am not sure I have time for those, we all need to.
    You can see I'm way behind. Been thinking too long. I wished.
    Thank you for using the prompt, I have enjoyed it a whole lot. :-)
