Tuesday Post

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all had a good weekend, and I wish you a great week, too! I had a great weekend, went out with 2 friends as we are now all vaccinated, and we went to Zons, and enjoyed ice sitting on a lovely patio - I will show the photos in the next days!

For Mia's challenge at AJJ I have another journal page:



Blogger has once again reversed the order of the photos, sorry!
The Basilica:


Inside I lit a candle for a friend:


The houses in the close are beautiful:




Market Street is pretty, too:



Flowers in neighbours' gardens:




Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

    What a fabulous journal page. Your three butterflies are wonderful and fit so well with Mia's theme at Art Journal Journey.

    Beautiful photos around your village. Lovely flowers in front of houses. So glad you were able to get out with friends and share time together.

    I wonder why your lovely photos are being reversed? Do you put them in one at a time, it's what I do? Maybe you are putting them in all together and then Blogger knows better! Just a thought. Stay safe, Deb

      I have tried both methods, same results. Lots of people seem to be having these problems! Blogger likes to keep us on our toes! Have a great day!

    Good morning Liberated and Newly Adventurous Valerie: Butterflies to begin a blog post is always welcomed by me and then you go on to regale us with a day out in Zons, with friends, and sunshine, and ice cream! Surely you are having too much fun. Time for COVID to rear back up again so that we don't all get too used to this frivolous and unimpeded use of our time! Patio dining, well spaced and in reduced numbers is once again possible here, and I will be having lunch tomorrow with my young friend, Josh, after almost a year. I am sure it will be very enjoyable. He got a big promotion and I will be anxious to hear all about it. Your photographs, in reverse order or not, are delightful and show us all what a pleasant corner of the world you live in. As George Gershwin so famously said, "Summertime, and the livin' is easy!" I hope that you have more fun in store. I will look forward to seeing the pictures of your adventures in Zons, in any sequence you care to show them! hugs and kisses. David

      Thanks David, it's a great feeling to be vaccinated but I am planning on staying cautious! I much enjoyed my ice coffee, and hope you will enjoy your patio visit with Josh. Great that he got a big promotion! I don't know why Blogger mixed up the pics, but lots of others have had the same problem. Yesterday I had my washing on the map and one of the pigeons pooped on it, that's gratitude for you! I feed them well, they could be considerate enough to poop somewhere else! Spellchecker keeps turning 'poops's into 'looks'. Have a happy day. Hugs to you both!

    Super pretty art journal page. Wow. I love those fabric flowers. At least, they look like fabric.

    I really liked the quick captions for your photos. It made me feel a part of your adventures.

    Glad you are feeling well and able to get out with a friend.

    Liebe Valerie deine Kunst ist was so prachtvolles, deine romantische Ader umzusetzen in dieser Seite liebe ich.
    Schön dein Spaziergang mit all den Eindrücken von Rosenbögen und überall blüht es so schön und in der Basilika!
    Schöne Abend wünsche ich dir!

    A lovely butterfly page for the challenge, I love the script that says 'Smile', it reminds me of the meandering of a butterfly when you see them flitting from flower to flower. That is a lovely blue that you have used for the main part of the background and the torn strip of scripted paper adds to the interest in contrast to the flowers on the left hand side.
    I was unsure if these were photos of where you live or where you visited. Nevertheless such beautiful houses, I love the arches of flowers. What a way to welcome someone to your home. Of course the cobbled streets always get me, they look so beautiful and what strikes me is how clean they always are. Thank you for sharing those photos.
    Hugs, Neet xx
