Photo ©2006 Roger R. Lopez, La Vernia, Texas...Although I am not a photographer by any means, I do take pleasure in snapping photos so I thought I would try a shot at sharing some pics and also share some thoughts about myself and my family at the same time. I happen to know two very sweet and dear people who have a true passion for photography and have taken some fabulous photos and their links are posted here. I truly admire their talent and appreciate their encouragement for me to try something new. I admire them immensely and would love to possess even the teeniest bit of their talent! Thanks you two! So about me... a girl who grew up out in the country in the outskirts of San Antonio, Tx in a small town called Elmendorf, Tx. I grew up in a humble family of 6 who lived on 33 acres. Let me tell you it was the best! My parents grew their own fresh fruits and vegetables. We used to have an orchard of plum trees. It was the best being able to go and pick a plum to eat right off the tree...yum! I'll always be proud of where and how I was raised and will never lose my love for living out in the country! My dream is to live out in the country again someday!

Sandra!! Its so good to have to back and yes, I saw your comments on my blog. So wonderful to hear from you again. Missed you plenty {{hugs}}.
Sorry I did not respond sooner. I had not logged in since Friday (its Sunday night now). Been running around and bushed by the time I get back. It is definitely a joy to hear from you again.
I love your photos of these places. It is so wonderful to be in wide, open spaces and the water elements do bring a sense of serenity.
Great to have you amongst us again :D

That picture of the clouds is great, it reminds me of a painting by N.C. Wyeth where there is a group of kids on a beach and they are watching a giant formed by the clouds walking across the horizon. Very cool.
Hey Brucie!! Thanks so much for the wonderful comments! I love them! I'm glad you liked the cloud one! I was hoping someone would notice it. ; - ) I just thought it was really gorgeous and needed to be captured and shared. ; 0 )
