Icebergs At Dusk, flameworked glass implosion landscape pendant.
We don't get icebergs here in St. Andrews but we do get snow. Today was a snowy, rainy day.
I usually don't see waves this big.
Buster enjoyed the drive.
So did Charlie!

Four Poppies, flameworked glass implosion flower pendant
Just up the street from where I live there is the beautiful Kingsbrae Garden with just about every flower you can imagine, including poppies.
I took these pictures in July, as you can see it was a very beautiful sunny day.

Elven and The Enchanted Forest
Elven, flameworked glass implosion flower pendant
There is a place full of elves and fairies, where all the mythical creatures from old fairy tales come alive.
Shaped from loving hands, (as are all the creatures that live here) these gnomes are enjoying a fine summer day.
This tree wasn't so lucky but some of the trees that live in this old growth forest are over 800 years old.
Buster stopping for some tea.

British Columbia's tallest tree house, it was a nice view from the top.
We paddled in a real beaver pond, and were lucky enough to see a beaver!If you would like more info about this place just visit this link The Enchanted Forest

Happy Chinese New Year!
Back in 2007 I was fortunate enough to spend Chinese New Year in Beijing!
This was the entrance to the Marco Polo Bridge
Here we are on the Lugou Bridge aka Marco Polo Bridge in English.
There were hundreds of stone lions on the bridge and they were all different.
Geordie and the Marco Polo Bridge
A typical old style building here
Decorations for New Years
Entering the The Tanzhe Temple in the hills, one of the oldest temples in Beijing.
Incense
Very old buildings, around 1700 years.
These trees were planted almost 1000 years ago!
It was a great day!
