Saturday Photo Hunt - Rare



This weeks theme is Rare, i had to think awhile on this one!


So after pondering for sometime on rare steak and rare birds, realising i had neither on hand. What did i have?
Something arrived today, well two things actually! Firstly my new camera whoop de doo!
Which enabled me to take a photograph of this.
A lovely photograph note from Mo! it was such a lovely surprise. The quote after these photos sum it up perfectly and it goes for all my blogging friends.


James F. Byrnes
Friendship without self-interest is one of the rare and beautiful things of life.

  2. What a great card and great timing for the Hunt! I'm not going to post this week as I have nothing rare to post plus I'm just not up to it this weekend and that in itself is rare!

    Lucky you to have gotten a card from Mo!

  20. Hi sweetie darling,
    Yay for your new camera!
    Hope you get some lovely hiking pictures!
    It seems so weird to see my own hand-writing on your blog! You said you were posting a pic of the card - but not my hand-writing!!! Now you know why I prefer to type!

    cheers & love,
    mo
