Ove the holidays, I just happened to peek out the back of the house at just the right moment to see an unfamiliar little sausage dog running in the side yard...Lottie finally came to me and lo and behold, her owners were from South Carolona and had left her in the care of relatives in outr neighborhood, needless to say, she had escaped and all were in a tizzy, I hate to think of what would have happened to Mitzi or Lottie had they not been placed in our paths...I think 'someone' most definitely, was watching out for them!<br />xo J~24 Cornershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630767883910250689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4571340508841427418.post-79293933592124199892012-02-12T19:38:54.006-08:002012-02-12T19:38:54.006-08:00Helen,

You capture it so beautifully in your paintings. <br />We have a place on Sanibel, so I am lucky enough to know the Gulf Coast very well.

Here the responsible dog owners are being punished because of the negligent ones. We are on a slim barrier island and the narrow road is very busy, so it is dangerous too for dogs to be free.<br />I have been very spoiled and have met the Queen and most of the royal family on several occasions, at Buckingham Palace and St. James Palace.<br />Have a wonderful week<br />Helen xxhelen tilstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02791882664528962799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4571340508841427418.post-69887335263792154402012-02-12T03:43:55.029-08:002012-02-12T03:43:55.029-08:00WOW, when I see that last photo, it is just AMAZIN...WOW, when I see that last photo, it is just AMAZING to think you met her! I always liked her, what a sweet smile and royal woman.<br /><br />Dear Helen, thank you for visiting and yes, I know I TAKE FOR GRANTED all the men that are out there that do GOOD and that it is so much easier to complain and judge. But to stop and thank them on a daily basis....well, that's living.<br /><br />ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND!

It did feel good to re-unite Mitzi with her owners.<br />You are so right Becky in assuming I did not run 5 miles that day. More like just 2 miles.

I know this costs a lot.<br /><br />I have met the late Queen Mother on three occasions, and two out of the three times, she wore that Sapphire and Diamond brooch. It is the most beautiful piece of jewellery I have seen and she wore it beautifully with her sparkling eyes and smile and genuine caring.<br /><br />So Dianne a you can see, these stamps mean very much to me.
