The purpose of Think Back Thursday is to link up a photo post about something from the past. You can reach back all the way to your childhood and bravely post pictures of you in your wild clothes and hair styles or post something from last year and tell us about it. I'm not picky. Hey, even yesterday was the past... LOL My posts will mostly be about events that happened prior to blogging, as a way to share those things with the world.

• It can be about you, about your kids, about your parents, whomever. You can include video, I will not exclude video alone posts, but I prefer them along with photos, as this is a photo meme. I am doing a weekly theme now. That should help narrow it down from the myriad of photos we all have. For ideas check out the other posts in my label Think Back Thursday.

My friend Becky and I

We have been friends since fall 1975 when I started going to Christian school. That was 9th grade. That is a loooong friendship. She is a missionary in Mexico so we only see her every few years.

I hope you enjoyed my photos.

I sure do miss relaxing at Winterthur.

We had to let our membership lapse because of hubby being out of work.

Someday we pray we can get a membership again.

My favorite picture of Winterthur of all the photos I have ever taken.

It is my favorite spot at Winterthur and I love the way the light hit that white flowering trees in the background and the blue of the flowers in the foreground and the ribbons on the May Pole in the middle. I love to sit on these bench swings and just relax and think about my creator and his goodness to me. These swinging benches are in the same area as the benches we are sitting in just above this photo, there are 4 benches around this circle.


Winterthur 5-5-2010
3 photos of my hubby on 3 different benches.
This was one of the few times we went to Winterthur without the children.
Just hubby and I.









one of just a bench and some lovely flowers, the same day
