GrammaChar said:I'm sorry to be absent from the forums. I miss all of you.
Haven't picked up the camera in quite some time.
Still dealing with the recent death of my husband, I just lost my 87 year old father. So sad to say goodbye to my two favorite guys.
I just need some time.
I'll be back.

Try to hang in there Char, we miss you and your magnificent photos that brighten our day. May your days be a bit brighter gradually, with the time that you need... Your guys are still alive in the cherished memories you hold You're in our prayers and thoughts in the meantime.

(about the roses) And they went on, "Listen,
the heart-shackles are not as you think,
death, illness, pain,
unrequited hope, not loneliness, but
lassitude, rue, vainglory, fear, anxiety,
selfishness."
Their fragrance all the while rising
from their blind bodies, making me
spin with joy.
Be Blessed Char
"My work is loving the world. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird — equal seekers of sweetness. Here the clam deep in the speckled sand. Are my boots old? Is my coat torn? Am I no longer young, and still not half-perfect? Let me keep my mind on what matters, which is my work which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished." — Mary Oliver, from Messenger
