You are doing so well with your a pic a day! Love the souvineers you are showing off.
And I love the pic of Hurricane Ivan. I've always had a weird fascination with hurricanes. I think they are beautiful from space. TFS!

Hi Tink, I just love these two latest layouts you did! Like the subtle colors and elegance. And the entry about dark chocolate, I did not check out the site, but dark chocolate is my fav, and I'd like to think that's how I live my life too!
