Sky Watch is fast becoming my diary, most of the photos are of events this week, places we have travelled or sights seen and good fun to share with the 100s of bloggers from all over who share their own view of the horizon.
Tattered Angels has a survey happening, asking questions about your crafting interests and you could win a big bundle of goodies linked here  and a scrapbooking give away with Gen over here.

Love that quote. I so agree with it. I see that with my oldest son who has difficulty writing and expressing himself with words. His art speaks volumes. Great photo as usual too. Kindest, Pruxxx

This is so beautiful Mandy. Like the watercolours of the explorers of the 19th century with all that fine detail.

I like to doodle palm trees, and a friend tell me it is because I like to be at the beach, just like your photo.

Hi Mandy, Great Quote...I sometimes think blogging is a bit like a diary...not as beautiful as a painting though and a long way from a Picasso. Is this a local scene? cheers Katherine
