Counting down the days and grateful for, old music in new
ways, art of all kinds in public places and people who make our world a nicer

Whatevers is a new challenge site
hosted by 3 creative friendsCat Scanlon, Vicki Chrisman,Nat Kalbach, to celebrate found photos and the stories that
could be told.
Found photos are often for sale at
jumble stalls and antique centres. Do you ever wonder, who are these people and
what is their story? Their story might
have been lost but the images are rich with details of fashion or landscapes
that have changed and vintage travel.

Chelsea. With their families moving away the two young friends are documenting
adventures in their journals and letters to each other......

paradise of Bermuda,
fresh off my first flight in an airplane
What an amazing experience to see the
world from high above in the clouds, it is a truly beautiful place. That
sensation of being free like a bird to ride the wind was exciting, I can’t wait
to do fly again soon.To think long
overland journeys can now be replaced with a adventure in the air, makes me
want to sprout wings and travel all the more soon.

you do something noble and beautiful and nobody notices, don't be sad. For the
sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still
sleeps." John Lennon Click the link to Sky Watch Friday to see what 100s of bloggers from all over have found on their horizon to share this week.
