…only if you believe

"Fight for a just cause
Love your fellow man
Live a good life"



when
my
sweet friends,
Barbara and Nattie,
tell
you about
a
favorite
place

you know
it will be either

1. the best fish tacos

or

2. a most amazing place


no tacos this time
but
definitely
a walk through

the
light
shining
down
from
above
was
a sign
IMG_0920
that
heaven
and
someone
from
above
was
present and
had
way too much fun
with
paints
IMG_0921

and fragrances..

hyacinths
ahhhhh
IMG_0923

and
little angels
keeping
watch
surrounded
by
the
first
blossoms
of
Spring
IMG_0925


pink
painted
Magnolia trees
in
their
as
the
warm days
and cool nights
of
Spring
call
out to the
artist from above
IMG_0929

no
fragrance
from the tulips
just
color
beyond the beyond
IMG_0930

….just saying
IMG_0932

the history
of
the
Filoli Estate
is described



the life style
and the
family's
wealth
is
beyond
comprehension
30 minutes from
San Francisco





Giverny

John and I
strolled
through
the
paths
...
inhaling
the
beauty
IMG_0935

every
Spring
bulb
had
awakened
IMG_0937

bees
seeking
sweetness
IMG_0939

and the
painted
masterpiece
reveled
in
every blossom
IMG_0940


dozens
of photographers
and their
tripods
were
front center
here
IMG_0946
capturing
the
yellow daffodils
reflected
in the
pond

…keeping time

dear
angel
Lurline Roth
gave
the gardens
to us
to inhale
and
delight in
IMG_0951


not
quite
the
pearly gates,
but
heaven
was
not
far


IMG_0954

the meadows
of
daffodills
and
the new
fragrant
blossoming
fruit trees
were
awe - inspiring
IMG_0956

and
back again
closer
to the
main house
the pots
filled
with
hand painted
color
IMG_0963

possibly
God's
paint brush?


(only if you believe….)
