It has come to our attention, yesterday's Early Birds were not distributed. Our apologies, and today's question: who was yesterday's first commenter?

JIm, and then Doug!

Now we're back on track.

So many gorgeous pictures today. Just when I think I've seen my favorite one, it moves on to the next one. I have at least 5 favorites today!! Love these slideshows!!

Have a wonderful day!

Yep Deb's got it...

Way to go Jim !
