I love picking up special rocks and setting them in the flower beds. They may seem like 'ordinary' rocks to others; but there's a lot of them out there that came from some place special.~melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07923627491671705881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-35760008341631474342010-12-16T07:08:16.411-05:002010-12-16T07:08:16.411-05:00Wintering in the dessert doesn't sound bad at ...Wintering in the dessert doesn't sound bad at all.

Glad though that Olive was reunited with her brother and they were able to get an education!<br /><br />too cute painting rocks; I bet that was a fun project to do!<br /><br />Gila Bend in the summer is not fun indeed; even in the middle of the night it can be well over 100 degrees. We've driven through it a few times but never really stopped to check the town out.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-14373405045187600562010-12-15T21:03:26.915-05:002010-12-15T21:03:26.915-05:00A good mean to measure time and life.
