If They...
If they breathe, they live. If they live, they feel. If they feel, they love. If they love, they are aware. If they are aware, they have a soul. ~ Williams

About Me
- Victoria
- California, United States
- I live in a little cottage with my furry "children" in a beautiful mountain forest where we enjoy daily visits from the little wild creatures. I love animals (you probably guessed), books, photography, tall trees, clear lakes, rain, snow, tea, the moon, and creating all kinds of art.

These are beautiful shots of your area. What a poetic name "Valley of Enchantment", and it is does look rather magical. I see from your previous posts your spring blossoms are well on their way now. Gorgeous shots of the dogwoods, lilacs and periwinkles. Still waiting for something, anything!, to bloom here. The buds are still tightly closed, but soon we'll see a change. It finally warmed up this week, and they're calling for a sunshiny weekend at long last. Have a great weekend Victoria :) and let me know how you like the cheesecake!
