A sailboat is a bird
with one wing in water
and the other in the air
"The difference between the
right word and the almost
right word is the difference
between lightning and
the lightning bug."
Mark Twain
"Doing good to another does
good also to yourself."
Seneca

ReplyDeleteMark Twain was a wise man...but, I didn't like reading about how he treated his wife...but then again...not many men back then actually respected their women.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos today.
