Maureen, I thought I would stop by your place and say Hi! Love the pictures! The one on your page of Sydney is classic. Hope you're having a good day! Here are some flowers to brighten it! Visit my page anytime! If you ever want to chat, drop by the SA2 page(under Clips conversations) sometime! People pop in and out of there at all times. Take care!

Sorry our chat was cut short. My husbands alarm went off and woke up the girl instead of him. We went on a hunt for a bottle to help her sleep.
Hope to chat with you again.

Hey Maureen,
To let you know you are not loosing 'it', you did leave me a lovely message. I just clean house every once in a while, makes the site open up faster.
Come join us in the chat room. For about an hour or so it gets a little wild, but fun.

i'm glad you enjoyed the Corries. Loch Lomond is the 3rd in the series of 7 for 7 days. I'l be updating after midnight PST for the tomorrow. If you missed the first one in the set - Flower of Scotland. After Loch Lomond has completed, check bottom clickon picture of Roy. This may some day be the national anthem of Scotland (it is Roy's song - he died 17 years ago this month).

Good Morning Maureen or I should say Good Evening.

Thank you for stopping by my page, sorry for all the clutter have not cleaned it out for a few days. Love the garden picture, would love my gardens to look like that.

I have never thought to get out a map (or look up)where someone lives. It has always been the thought this side of the world or that side. As nosy as I am you would think I would do look them up. Oh take that back I have looked up so of Wagdy's places. I don't really live in Riesel, it is approximately 15 minutes away from me, but it is my address for 911 purposes. I live in a rural area that at one time had a zip code, but it was taken away because we are smaller than community. I do not think we classify as a village. My nearest nieghbor is about a mile way. And the only people I know out here. Though since my dad has died I have learned that I am related to half the people out here that I did not know existed.

Oops my darling is demanding attention. Hope that gives you some more insight of my dwellings.

Have a great day.

Hi Mureen, Haven't been to visit in a while thought I would stop by. See you have added some new pictures, have never been to Vienna all though we did pass through Austria. Your pictures of the Rhein is very familiar think I even have a picture of the same castle. I do like when others have pictures of places I have never been. It gives me ideas of places to visit.

Gday Maureen, I can't believe I haven't been here yet. Been to your sister's page but she didn't leave directions! Loved your travel photos, especially the gardens. I've had the chance to see so many places by travelling vicariously through the rest of you.
I've brought you a bottle of bubbly, a plate of nibblies and an invitation to visit my page anytime. Take a look around my garden, find a seat in the sun and meet the rest of the tribe. Hope to see you there.

How was your trip home yesterday? Did you get much rain? Hope Mum didn't chatter too much! She was probably very tired though, I certainly was!

, Maureen, for your visit. We obviously have similar taste in music. I have been priviledged enough to have seen Pavarotti twice and with the 3 tenors - was absolute amazing, will never forget the experience. Regarding u-tube, It's also new to me, but I can try and explain. You first go to www.youtube.com and search for the song you want to paste onto your page. Copy-and-paste the EMBED code of the YouTube Video that you want.
Press 'Check Flickr and YouTube codes' and the content will appear. Hope this will be helpful. Take care and have a lovely weekend.

Well done, Maureen, exellent choice of music. Did you follow the news on the funeral of Pavarotti, if not, Andrea Bocelli performed - very sad! Cheers

Hello Maureen - Thank you for your visit. I am sorry I wasn't home! Thank you, also, for your kind comments. I haven't added pictures in so long. I have had a very busy summer, but my life should start to slow down soon. Please come back and visit any time. I hope to post pictures that I have taken this summer soon. You have a beautiful family, too, Maureen.

, Maureen. Wow, there is no way I could pick a favorite of your photos; I loved traveling through you. I wanted to thank you for the visit on my birthday, but stopped to view your photos on Flickr and was totally distracted. Isn't there so much beauty on this earth? And, of course, your daughter exemplifies that attribute, too. I have never checked out the jigsaw site, so I will do that sometime this week, hopefully. Thanks again for the greeting and for sharing your photos!

Enjoyed your U-tube of Sarah Brightman - she was at Britt several years ago. Great singer.

I noticed that you had left a comment on my Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie Photo. - Case your interested, the recipe is on page 2 of the recipe forum. In a couple of more months strawberries should be in season "down under".
