Hello from Arizona!

Thanks Ruth for you kind comments, Its not so bad living where I do lol I shall think of Arizona the next time I go there, but I bet it'll be raining lol.  I had a comment from a friend in Georgia USA about my photo of Telegraph Hill between Lily and Hexton, just up the road from where I live, he said it looked so much like California! Yes I suppose we ARE blessed, but living here we (or maybe its just me) probably dont realise it, its just the norm really. 

Hello Karen, Sarah, Lyn & Ron:

Thanks for the words of welcome.  I don't do many web exchanges, so you may only hear from me on weekends.  Lyn, yes it's just the norm to overlook and take for granted, and I guess the more blessed you are, the more you do it.  If you ever want to visit AZ when it's not raining, the driest months are May and June, if you can stand the heat.  It was about 103 today.  Ron - I might just have to check you out next time we visit.  I love CS Lewis, saw Prince Caspian yesterday.  It was fantastic.  If any of you are considering a vacaton to the US anytime soon, this would probably be a good year.  The currency exchange rates are most definitely in your favor right now.

Have a great week!

Hi Ruth

I went to the top of Tower Bridge as well, it was pretty cool even though it was a misty day.  I think London's great, I go every year for a weekend break.  Do the sightseeing bit. 

Karen

Oh Lord! Yawn, yawn....LOL!

Welcome Ruth, with the exception of Ron and Peter, you will find most of us are fairly harmless.

Hi Diana:

Thanks for the welcome.....and the tip.

Thanks a million, Peter!  This is a great place and I'm having a lot of fun with it.  Hope you had a great vacation - where did you go?

 I guess I'll find out at some point if Diana's assessment of you is true.  But I like you so far....and since I don't text much, it took me forever to find out what "lol" meant.  I think I prefer "He he he."
