Meche's Mardis Gras Donut King Cake

 Before
After

It was delicious.
I could have eaten the whole thing!
Bavarian cream filling in part
chocolate frosting in others
whoever found the tiny doll
buys the next one.
Hurry back!

Mother Nature does Valentines

Feb. 8, 2014

It snowed 
in Mississippi

A car turned around 
in front of our house

Turning wheels
created hearts

Love is all there is

Thanks,  Mother Nature

Biloxi, MS Cemetery behind The Elk's Lodge on I90



Part of the cemetery's monster Live Oak Tree
It takes "a group" to put their arms around the trunk.

Biloxi, MS, Post Hurricane Katrina and Jan '14 snow and ice

It was our first trip to the coast since Katrina. 
Mother Nature brought everything to a halt again
January '14
when she delivered snow and ice
that lingers.

The Gulf is still the Gulf.
Gulls and pigeons are still gulls and pigeons.
that feast on day-old bread.

Post Katrina:
Sculptures of birds and marine life
were created from the
remains of live oak trees along I90
by
chainsaw artists Dayton Scoggins and Marlin Miller

I was moved to tears.
Out of unimaginable devastation beauty arose,
proof 
there are blessings
in the worst
situations.

Go to biloxi.ms.us
find what's "Free"
for pics of the sculptures
and
info on the area.
There's lots to see and do.
