Hazy...

…………………………Day


High haze this afternoon didn’t mean cooler temperatures!

A swim at high tide was welcome and pleasurable.



Thank you for your interest in my blip showing frankincense and myrrh. These pieces were given to me last year by a couple who had spent several years living in the Middle East. I was thrilled as I had never seen these ‘gifts’ which were carried by the Three Wise Men and associated with epiphany.
