"Words are a form of action,
capable of influencing change.
Their articulation represents a complete,
live experience."

Vorfreudu
(The joyful, intense anticipation
that comes from imagining future pleasures.)
Ah yes, growing delectable
mouth-watering tomatoes
a soul-satisfying experience
in everything fresh from the garden.
Supervisor.
Two sweeties that have crossed the rainbow bridge but are always in our thoughts.
She was a stray that enjoyed living on our grounds.
At first I thought this was a live critter, as this young Farmington student strolled the room. This little young'un is his own creation for the Art Fair.
All the right moves
to appear live.

We were just having fun."

"Summer is a great time to visit art museums,
which offer the refreshing rinse of swimming pools -
only instead of cool water, you immerse yourself in art."

"Every day or two,
I strolled to the village
to hear some of the gossip
which is incessantly going on there,
circulating either from mouth to mouth
or newspaper to newspaper,
and which, taken in homeopathic doses
was really as refreshing in it's way as the rustle of leaves
and the peeping of frogs."
Henry David Thoreau

To everyone caught in the throws of a tragic fire in Canada, as my pups and I walked outside this morning we caught the scent of our pain.
You are in our thoughts.
I close by sending well wishes and prayers
To everyone in Canada.
God Bless you all,
in this devastating time.
Take good care everyone and enjoy your weekend.

Hello Karen, what an awesome post. I love all the images and the quotes. It is wonderful to see the students are so creative. Sweet furbabies, my Goldie Girl is always in my thoughts. I love the reader shot! My prayers go out to the victims of the fire in Canada too. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
I so enjoy seeing a child, who can't end the day without a good book!! Lots of fun today, I enjoyed your quotes!! Happy Mother's Day to you, enjoy your weekend!!
Most reassuring Karen! One sees participation and appreciation of the arts in a relaxed mood mindful of the delusion and confusion brought on by the fire. Most unsettling to see people losing their homes and everything they had labored for. We feel for them!

Great post Karen; "Vorfreude" is a powerful word, genuine and keeps its promise. Love the guardians and friends of the family. Never forgotten the ones who have passed and enriched our lives.
