In the Garden of Verses

I have a little shadow that

goes in and out with me,

and what can be the use of him

is more than I can see.

"A Child's Garden of Verses"

Robert Louis Stevenson

Love that one. Remember it from a book I had when I was a child. Probably still have it.

Can't seem to comment at Easy Street without the annoying "connecting" infinately problem- again! Oh I hate that!

I've been collecting quotes since I was 16 years old. They come from books I'm reading, magazines, song lyrics, and I've even been known to fumble in a dark theater for a check registry to record a great line from a movie. (You ought to see that in-the-dark handwriting!) I'll give credit when I know who is responsible for the quote. If no author is listed, don't assume it is mine.

All photos are mine, unless otherwise noted. All photos are taken with either a Kodak EasyShare Z612 or a Nikon Coolpix. (Saving my $$ for a more professional camera one of these days.) When I started this blog all photos were straight out of the camera. Now I use picasa to crop, enhance, retouch, and sometimes just play; though I still prefer straight out of the camera. It's easier!

As of 2016, most photos are taken with an iPhone camera.
