1. Great minds!
   Bisous et Bon Weekend,
   H

2. Oh thank you, Loree–this was nothing compared to your most recent! And yes…it is!

3. Joan, while I love hearing about your wildlife community (usually a far more reliable lot than the human kind), I admit you have me worried! Buckle down. I know you are a trooper but stay safe and out of harms way please.

4. I hope I didn't disappoint…

5. Very beautiful, I love the smell of thyme underfoot.

6. Why don't more Americans treasure these scenes??
   who the heck likes lawns? I bet there were a million birds there!

   We need to change the perception! This is enormous beauty! And wonderful for animals, birds, insects!

   americans go to Europe; take millions of pictures; and then forget. The have huge lawns…..pesticides…..all that stuff!This weekend there is a marvelous workshop at my house about organic gardening!!

   Brava!!

7. A wonderful tribute to thyme — I've been planning a similar post from Crete – your photos are so similar to some I took that I had to think twice about where you were. Happy Guesting and Happy Weekend.

8. What an enchanting post you wrote Heather. Marseille seems mysterious and lovely.

9. A lovely escape from threats of Tropical Storm Andrea. I'm right in the midst, so far mini tornado was bit inland, water spout a bit south, and minor flooding downtown and we're fine here. Plants are delighted, despite some breakage. In a break in the pounding rain, I went to the street to pick up my mail and saw that it has been so storm dark, now 3:30 in the afternoon, the night blooming jasmine ares blooming and a sole butterfly was flitting about it, drunk! All the rest of my front sidewalk buddies, i.e., 3 kinds of butterflies, two kinds of bees, squirrels, 7 kinds of birds and a community of geckos are out of the storm as are the more occasional raccoons, armadillos, snakes, toads and frogs.

10. Always thrilled to have you visiting chez moi… 🙂
