Sky Shot and A Blogging Friend Indeed !

OK .. I have not got the greatest sky shot for Friday but here is a "shot" at it anyways !

A nice quiet sunrise with a touch of fog and an orange glow .. not extremely riveting but not too shabby ?

And now for something completely different .. I have to brag about a wonderful present a fellow garden blogger all the way from Germany has graced me with (she is one heck of a knitter !!)

I had to hike up my pajamas and hold that pose with my knees to keep them up so these lovely socks could be seen ! ... and something as a bonus that will come in very handy for next winter (yup .. winter will roll on again eventually .. eeekk !)  .. "wrist warmers" to match !

These are the coolist oops ! warmest presents I have received ! (aside from hubby's I mean .. sorry Meggie!) ... Speaking of Meggie .. she is my fellow nut case gardener .. her blog is
Meggie's Flowers/Colours in my Life .. so take a visit over to Northern Germany where Meggie lives and have a peek at her adventures !
P.S.  .... Emma just had to check things out and sneak a pose in these pictures you might have noticed ?

The next thing I want to mention is something I ran across just today .. that Saturday night is "Super Moon" night for the year .. the moon is supposed to be very close and very brilliant for those of us who can stay awake that long .. but I will be aiming for some pictures , as long as I can keep my eyelids open ..
The weather is forecasted to be clear so I hope my cameras and I can capture some focused shots of this beauty : )

Hey, I thought I was your nutcase garden buddy! (Foot stomp.)

I love Meggie's work. She is very talented, isn't she? And Emma is so sweet getting herself on the Internet.
