Picture of the Day: Warm Remembering

Sometimes the best picture is one we hold in our mind’s eye. Spend a bit of the gray cold time we are in recalling some beautiful, warmer moments. Thank you, Jennifer Helms, for sharing some beauty from your late summer garden!

Butterfly Feast for the Eyes!

These two beauties, a monarch and (I think) a fritillary butterfly, are sure to generate a sunny smile!
