I received the loveliest email and photo from a family friend in northern Illinois. He graciously consented to be guest blogger today. You might have read his comments on blog posts of mine. He collects MGs and is a certified pie judge. A dear friend. What I always remember is how Rob and his wife Mary drove to Rockford, Illinois for my mother’s funeral service and also came to have lunch in Milwaukee and offer friendship and support when I took Laura to college at Marquette. Here is Rob’s note and photo-
I love following your blogs and the interesting subjects that you always seem to capture at the right moment. You also inspire me as I sit and think deep thoughts about what is around me and look at things differently. Today I finished up some yard work getting ready for the cold weather that is expected in the near future. The temperature was around 64 degrees and it was a little cloudy. As I sat on the patio enjoying a nice glass of wine, i took out my iphone and captured this photo that just seemed to be something unusual about it. The reflection of the homes on the other side of the lake, the cloudy sky, the metal patio table, the branches of the tree and of course the glass of wine. Do I have an eye or should I go back to go? Thanks. Rob

good to have friends like this!
Love Rob’s eye. Fully agree with his comment. Thanks for sharing.
What a sweet and thoughtful note. Great photo too.
what a great shot
Like the detailed design on the table. Sounds like a good way to enjoy the fruits of your labor :-))
Keep shooting Rob! Awesome shot!
Great shot, Rob!
A glass of wine never looked so good.
You’ve started something Ruth! We all look at the everyday moments differently now. JB
What a beautiful photo and what a great friendship! Thanks, Ruth, for sharing both with us.
He has an eye. I love this guy, MGs and pie tasting and nice to boot.
Thanks Greg. He is one great guy!
This is an AMAZING photo, in my humble opinion. Go Rob! 🙂
I know he will enjoy all the positive comments. My sister thought it could grace the cover of a wine magazine!
I agree with your sister. 🙂
