It only takes 1 tree to make a thousand matches
It only takes 1 match to burn a thousand trees

Great and amazing photos, warm greetings!
ReplyDeleteHello, John! The skies photos are all beautiful. Lovely captures. I do love the trees, the forest fires are awful. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteExcellent photos John, glad you were impressed by my teasels which you could see if you read about them used to be used in the wool trade.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning John, your photos are lovely. We went for a little drive a couple of days ago and the sun was hitting the Cascades off in the distances . . . so pretty. Although this snow and ice makes a beautiful landscape, I am looking forward to seeing it all melt away.
ReplyDeleteI like that quote from the match box . . . so true.
Have a lovely day.
Connie :)

ReplyDeleteHello from Idaho and stop in from Ramblin AM...We do have some beautiful mountains in the northwest.
ReplyDeleteIf you fine the time stop in for a cup of coffee
Hello John, it looks to me like you're getting bluer skies during your winter than we are in our summer :) Oh well, we can't do anything about the weather so we might as well just enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteLovely sky and mountain photos and that's a great quote.
