Dear Terra,
Glad you like ...Sunday June 12th, 2010<br /><br />Dear Terra,<br />Glad you like the otters. I really like them too. They are so sweet. I haven't seen your post yet, but I'm getting there!<br />------<br />Dear Short and Sweet,<br />It's nice that you took my linguistic mistake the right way. Yes the otters are cute. <br />Thank you for your kind words about the pictures of the children.<br />Mostly they are good sports. But Elisabet had a temper-tantrum right after took the pics of her "Underwater-box". She demanded that I remove the photos from the camera and not use them on my blog post. She is six years old and sometimes does not listen to reason. She threatened to trash my camera (which is still not quite paid for and cost me 8.000 Swedish crowns [sek] =approximately a thousand US dollars). So I had to lock my camera in a cabinet in order to protect it from her rage. <br />You have no idea what goes on between these pretty pictures that I show on my blogs. My off-line-life is often very complicated!!!<br />------<br />Dear Leslie,<br />Thank you for writing. There is a reason for asking you about you and Lorne, but I'll write an e-mail and explain. <br />You wonderful person. You and Lorne are in my prayers!<br />------<br />Happy Weekend,<br />AnnaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926688000745346961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-33601012848578566912010-06-13T05:37:16.033+02:002010-06-13T05:37:16.033+02:00u are so clever...how do you go from having nothin...u are so clever...how do you go from having nothin' to all this? love the pics...so great!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530939502081143432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-74704230946803884442010-06-13T02:44:02.539+02:002010-06-13T02:44:02.539+02:00Pink boots and a drawn on mustache.

I really enjoyed reading this post of yours - sorry, but this week has been h*ll for both Lorne and me as he had his first chemo and we thought he was going to be okay, but turns out he's not. *sigh* Anyway, just to answer your question, we went together when we were in our early 20's and were going to get married but he got cold feet. So I moved on and married someone else (who died in 1992) and he then rebounded with someone else and they got divorced in 1980...he never remarried and we reconnected almost 2 years ago to find the magic still there. So I'm really worried about losing him again, but this time to cancer.Leslie:https://www.blogger.com/profile/11964698251137788839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-85295283708614225542010-06-12T05:25:44.728+02:002010-06-12T05:25:44.728+02:00I enjoyed the "otter"/"utter" ...I enjoyed the "otter"/"utter" explanation and the wonderful photos of the pink umbrella and the children.

I was in a hurry and saw the possibilities at the last minute.<br />------<br />Dear Rocky Mountain Woman,<br />I am always happy when people, who know more about a subject than I do, visit my blog posts. "Hand on experience" is really what you could call it! (That's really funny!!) My mother went to cooking school during WW-II when there was rationing in Sweden (even though it was one of the few places that remain neutral in Europe at that time), and had to learn how to do everything from scratch. She learned how to milk cows by hand. I had a suburban-childhood with no pets, so I have had to learn about animals as an adult. But I have seen how both hand and machine-milking is done.<br />Thanks for sharing and please correct any error you see! <br /><br />------<br />Dear Ann, <br />Thanks for your kind words about Erik & Elisabet.<br />------ <br />Dear Alesa Warcan,<br />Thank you also for your very kind words. I feel that you are a part of my cheering squad! You pointed me in the right direction about blogging and it has really helped. This blog has gone from an 89-grade to a 91 website-grade, since I followed your advice.<br /><br />Photography was a part of my education. I have a BFA in Communcation Arts and Design from Virginia Commonwealth University with very good teachers. We looked a lot at the work of the famous photographers who were better at capturing the "decisive moment" (Was that Cartier-Bresson?? I'll look it up...) than I am. And this was before digital photography! I am not that technical, I love image-making, but I have always tried to make the most of the techiques that happen to be available, even if it is a box with a tiny pin-hole on one side!<br /><br />I don't have much time to do these letter-posts. But I demand quality of myself, so I wind up in a conflict with myself. For this post I had about four or five more ideas for words than I have shown here. I cut the U-words that were not good enough.<br />-----<br />Dear Vicki,<br />I haven't looked at yours yet. But I'll get there. Glad that you have a sense of humour!<br />------<br />Dear Jeff,<br />Thank you for your kind words. Peace and blessings to you too. I'll visit your post soon.<br />------<br />Dear Natasha,<br />Thank you for your patience. You have been very good about visitng and commenting on these letter-posts, and I suspect that I have been a little sloppy and missed yours. But I will rectify this. My own favourite photo in this batch is the pink umbrella!<br />------<br />Thank you all for visiting!<br />Best wishes,<br />AnnaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926688000745346961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646599654892446019.post-55889991475654301142010-06-11T08:22:33.204+02:002010-06-11T08:22:33.204+02:00This was a very interesting post!
