The following pictures were taken using a camera that was so kindly loaned to me by my couchsurfing host, Karen Walker. Without her thoughtfulnes, I wouldn't have a zillion pictures of Quarry Garden flowers or the breathtaking views from Mount Mania!! Thanks Karen -

Beautiful pictures, Mel, thank you! Oh, and nice tip on reading the last blog. :) You look so cute in all your pics.
Travis wants to know if you're going to check out the site where Hobbiton from Lord of the Rings was filmed. He's a nerd. He says he's gonna find out where it is and then we'll let you know.
