The Computer Bug and the Sunset

This beautiful sunset happened two days ago - but I was not able to post it earlier.

Hi my friends,

Two days ago I shot this wonderful sunset at the lake - and while I was out a computer bug was eating up my computer! Don't laugh, because it was not fun at all! 

The repair guy was here for over 7 hours and tried to fix both of our laptops, not just mine. And after he left, I was happy for maybe 2 hours and then something were blocking everything again - I had no connections at all! So, today is Saturday, we called the guy up again - he was here for maybe another hour and finally now it's everything the way it should be: it's fine and working - YEAH! :)

I have never realized so clearly how strong - and you probably too! - I am addicted and depending on this box called laptop :)

So, I hope I can work for a while again without any problems, cross your fingers for me.

Thank you also for all those kind comments from the last post!

See you tomorrow too? It's my "Wordless Sunday" Special coming up :)

Have a great weekend!

Susanne

I grow plants for many reasons

Flower pots in the backyard

I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow.

A pretty architectural detail

Modern architectural detail, captured in down town Melbourne, FL

Hi my friends,

it's always a big joy to see your visits and comments every day, or almost every day. Thank you so much, I do appreciate every single one.

This picture is from our last stroll in down town in Melbourne FL. 

It caught  my eyes because of the strong vivid colors, you can not miss it out. 

It's the facade of a very arty looking tiled house in the heart of down town.

Stay tuned with me, come back again and leave a comment, if you like my stuff.

Have a wonderful day!

A way of feeling...

Zen Design

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

The Wheel of Guidance...

I believe that the fight against crime starts in the home. Parents must take responsibility for their children and show them love and guidance from an early age so they learn to respect the rights of others.

The three great elemental sounds in nature...

The three great elemental sounds in nature are the sound of rain, the sound of wind in a primeval wood, and the sound of outer ocean on a beach.
Henry Beston  

Hi my friends,

Thank you so much for ALL the wonderful comments and compliments to my post from yesterday! This photos above was made on the same spot at Cocoa Beach - but with a sight to the right side, where it was not that crowded at all. People here enjoyed more the silence, they preferred not to sit in a crowd of tourists.

I have something great to share with you and something what I'm very proud of it: 

I got an announcement this morning that my blog was chosen to be on the list of 

the 47 best photo blogs on the web. 

How exciting is that? I love messages like this - It makes my and my THANK YOU goes  out to those people who have chosen me. :)

Go have a look and read more about here! 

Have a wonderful day too!

A crowded beach

Cocoa Beach was crowded yesterday

Hi my friends,

Thanks for all your kind comments yesterday!

We went down to the beach in the afternoon. All the parking lots were more than full with cars and families were gathering under umbrellas. Daddies were fishing or tried to do so, kids were screaming, kites were flying and birds tried to catch some extra food.

The real life on a crowded beach! :)

See you tomorrow again? 

I know, it's Easter weekend coming up. A lot of you are for sure not sitting on the computers, like me ;)

Wish you all wonderful Easter days, enjoy life together with your families.

Susanne

Dandelion Flower - Sign of Spring

It's springtime - Yeah!

The Medicinal use of the Dandelions

Dandelions, 

flowers, roots and leaves, have been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine & medicinal teas, most notably for liver detoxification, as a natural diuretic and for inflammation reduction. Unlike other diuretics, dandelion leaves contain good amounts of potassium, a mineral that is often lost during increased urination. There is also evidence that this property of dandelion leaves may normalize blood sugar.

Beach Treasures

Seashells, captured at one of the beaches at the Space Coast, Florida

A seashell, also known as a sea shell, or simply as a shell, is the common name for a hard, protective outer layer, a shell, or in some cases a "test", that was created by a sea creature, a marine organism. The shell is part of the body of a marine animal. In most cases a shell is an exoskeleton, usually that of an animal without a backbone, an invertebrate. Seashells are most often found on beaches.

The word seashell is most often used to mean the shells of marine mollusks, i.e. mollusk shells. It can however also be used to mean the shells of a wide variety of other marine animals from various different phyla. For helpful introductory articles, see marine invertebrates and marine biology.

As well as marine mollusks, many other kinds of sea animals have exoskeletons or even internal shells which sometimes, after death, wash up on the beach and may be picked up by beachcombers. These shells include remains from species in other invertebrate phyla, such as the moulted shells or exuviae of crabs and lobsters, the shells of barnacles, horseshoe crab shells, the tests (endoskeletons) of sea urchins, sand dollars and seastars, brachiopod shells, and the shells of marine annelid worms in the family Serpulidae, which create calcareous tubes cemented onto other surfaces.

Seashells have been admired, studied and used by humans for many different purposes throughout history and pre-history.




Hi my friends,

today we have learned something about seashells. I have copied this text from Wikipedia, it doesn't comes from my brain - I'm not that smart....*smile*....

Thank you for all the kind comments from yesterday. I see, not to many people liked or know the Italian Maestro "Zucchero" and his smoky soft voice. That's not a problem at all, I do love him :))

I wish you all a wonderful day filled with sunshine, everywhere you go!
See you again tomorrow, here on this spot. :)

Hi my friends,

Thanks for all those wonderful and heartwarming comments from yesterday. You all made my day with your words. I appreciate every single one.

I know, my music taste is probably not every ones taste also - don't mind, this one is mine, you don't have to like it....*smile*....

Have a wonderful day!
