Thank you so much for stopping by once again ; I was so excited to share today's thoughts with you because yesterday I went back to my home town to visit two precious and so loved teachers from my school days .

They are husband and wife and if you'd like to read of how I got back in touch again maybe you'd like to follow this link.

http://eiddwen.hubpages.com/hub/A-Dream-On-Each-Horizon

Yesterday we all three made a solemn promise that we will never lose touch again.

I travelled on the bus as I don't drive and arrived too early for my visit ;this coming about intentionally so I could walk around and take many photos !!First place I went to was the Riverside ;here I took some gorgeous pics and will share these with you in the next few days.

I then went to a little cafe to have Sausage and Chips ;but I still had time to spare and this great need came from nowhere and I felt this compulsive need to retrace my footsteps into The Commins ; a woodland plus Riverside where many years ago as a little girl I along with my precious Beagle Lassie spent hour upon hour exploring every inch of Mother' Nature's beautiful and magical kingdom of love .

Would it have changed??

How would I feel retracing these steps of more than forty years ago??

Well I was soon to find out !!!!

Right do you all have your tea,coffee and biscuits ???

Follow me and I hope you all enjoy.

Last night I decided to download all photos onto this computer and then so enjoyed going through them all one by one ; oh my gems !!!

Before going to bed I decided to edit my beautiful photo of my 'Rock Rose' into various themes ; this fills me with satisfaction and always leaves a great sense of warmth.

Therefore what better way to round this hub off nicely than to share them all with you.

Thank you for visiting and here's hoping you will stop by again.

Lots of love from my little corner of Wales.

Eddy.

My Beautiful Rock Rose.
