Hi Ruth, I nominated you for the Sunshine Award. Check it out: http://monahoward.com/2012/03/25/the-sun-is-shining/
And Flat Ruthie went hiking today in the Phoenix Mountain Park but she is not happy with the pictures, so we’ll take a few more excursions until she’s satisfied with the images.
Blessings and Joy to you!
