First the bad news (because I'd love to pretend I will be missed!) : I will be gone for a week to enjoy the above scenery and for some spring skiing, last chance this season. Therefore blogging will be After a whole week of clouds and rain in Spain, I was happy to wake up to sunshine today again. That means Bob-kat can take wonderful pictures of her stay to share on her blog. And as I am preparing this post, more good news found their way to me: Proximidade, an award created by Dawn at Twisted Sister. and passed on to me by the wonderful Jientje (Thank you very much, Jientje, you made my day!) described as follows:
This blog invests and believes in proximity- nearness in space, time and relationships. Nominated bloggers are exceedingly charming, they aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes for self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. This blog award should be sent to another eight bloggers and they, in turn, should forward it to eight of their favorites. You should include the text for Proximidade in your blog announcement. And please note that all awards and tags are optional…“This blog invests and believes in ‘proximity’ [meaning that blogging makes us 'close' - being close through proxy].” The award is in Portuguese, in case you are wondering. And since you are reading this, know this award has just been passed on to you, should you so desire.

I met up with a blogging friend at Christmas time. It was loads of fun. She brought her family so we did get pictures/proof. It was like meeting up with an old friend...although we did have to go through the real name bit (neither of us post our family's real names on our blogs.)
Very creative take on the stripes! Have fun skiing!

Great photo! Yep, last chance for skiing, spring is here, and summer is almost knocking at the door. Have a great vacation.And congrats on your award/.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo! At first I thought it was a photo of white stripes and then I saw the fence. Love the illusion. What fun to go skiing for a week. That is good news! Loved your choice for stripes this week.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, fantastic!! Love it. On first glance, the slats and therefore the stripes were the most noticeable and then looking closer could see the amazing view through them. Outstanding!
ReplyDeleteLovely. I haven't skied for a few years. About time I would say. Take care and no dangerous stuff.
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos of stripes Mar. And enjoy your skiing adventure. Congrats on the award too.
