I prefer yours, actually. Here it is harsher, more extreme, maybe even more primordial - not refined. I have LOVED my time spent in Sun City West.

He also was an arson investigator and had to go to court many times along with all the drug smuggler. He was the supervisor for the Four corners region.<br /><br />Erly...<br />You have just made my day or year !<br />Thank for the complement. <br />My Brother is indeed a super person who lives his life well. My kids are rather special to me but I am the non cool person in my family. Way too many bad choices in my life that can never be rectify. But Thanks for thinking that, we all are just family. <br /><br />Yes, the fires are slowly getting under control.<br />Fires are usually started by just plain dumb people who should know better.... but they have been started intentionally along the border.<br /><br />I love that color. I grew up with it so it feels like home to me, comfortable, soothing and beautiful.angryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2184571205434660863.post-70041587138079578262011-06-22T14:24:03.556-07:002011-06-22T14:24:03.556-07:00What striking composition of the cactus pad and fi...What striking composition of the cactus pad and figs in a beautiful palette.

I'm assuming that people start them carelessly rather than intentionally; not that the end result is any different, but I'd much rather think that they arise out of lapses of concentration than badness. <br /><br />I like that colour of prickly pear too, and would rather like a pair of trousers in it.Erylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008344023000459577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2184571205434660863.post-42716621580637445962011-06-22T12:22:37.078-07:002011-06-22T12:22:37.078-07:00Hello:

It is difficult to conceive of the acreage which has succumbed to the fires.<br /><br />Your brother does indeed sound a most interesting person and exceedingly brave to have been prepared to jump into the middle of a raging fire. I should have wanted a lot more than a fire blanket to do that.<br /><br />We sincerely hope that the fire situation will all be under control soon and that lives and property will be safe.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
