Little Sneak Peek

'Just a quick one that jumped out at me as I was going through Tracey and Jannik's images. I can picture this one in a gorgeous canvas wrap...

The day was beautiful. Many, many more to come later this week.

So, if a picture is worth a thousand words, I'm going to let this one do the talking:




And now my favorite (long) 'Anne' quote. Ever:

"The day was beautiful and the way was beautiful. Anne was almost sorry when they reached Hester Gray's garden, and sat down on the old bench. But it was beautiful there, too -- as beautiful as it had been on the faraway day of the Golden Picnic, when Diana and Jane and Priscilla and she had found it. Then it had been lovely with narcissus and violets; now golden rod had kindled its fairy torches in the corners and asters dotted it bluely. The call of the brook came up through the woods from the valley of birches with all its old allurement; the mellow air was full of the purr of the sea; beyond were fields rimmed by fences bleached silvery gray in the suns of many summers, and long hills scarfed with the shadows of autumnal clouds; with the blowing of the west wind old dreams returned."

-Lucy Maud Montgomery, Canadian authoress
