Welcome to my journal. I`m 57 and have been married to Jim for 36 yrs, have two grown up children, a son Daniel who is 32 and a daughter Kerry who is 35. She is married to Slava and they have Roman who is 4 1/2 and his baby sister Sophie who is 8mths old. Daniel is now single after a long term relationship though I dearly hope he won`t be on his own for long. I`m a very ordinary person who is passionate about gardening and despite being in my mid..well, late fifties I still see myself as much younger, except when I look in the mirror! My journal is written just the way I speak so please forgive the bad grammer. Please read on.....
WHOA I can imagine Dracula driving horses down that bridle way,I like no 10 and the cool dudes .looking at your magnolia,yes mine is dead ....love Jan xx
When I was a kid I used to think magnolias were handkerchiefs tied on trees but I can't recall ever thinking there was anything odd about this! Star of the show - Jake. I wonder why dogs are always so photogenic. Something about the eyes I think. Love, Angie x
Lovely pictures Sandra ,but I am afraid I wouldn't dare venture here,even if I had someone with me in todays day and age and the dog.It looks very isolated .I am terrified of places like this now.I would even be afraid to let anyone close to me go to a place like this,to walk the dog.Or have I got oit wrong are ther many people about when you go.Loved the pics anyway and Jake is such a lovely dog and his coat is wonderful and glossy.My father swore to give our dog cold tea for his coat,and I am sure it put that shine on it myself.Take Care God Bless.Thinking of Jeannette all day long and evening.I pray she is ok!!How w aiting for news as such gets to me is unbelievable.
It looks a beautiful place to walk Sandra! I used to wander miles with my two border collies across the South Downs. Jake's very handsome and so are the two cool dudes! Lol! Have a great weekend! Jeannette xx http://journals.aol.co.uk/jlocorriere05/Welcometomytravels/
some wonderful pictures! I especially like the magnolia and your husband and grandson. Its so nice to be getting a few warm days.... hope the cold doesn't touch your beautiful tree. Sandra

Hey, you're doing really well with your blog these days! I followed the link from the "AOL most commented blog" section where you're about 8th!! http://peopleconnection.aol.com/blogs Well done. Your blog is a fascinating, entertaining and humane record of your life. I really like it, although The west-Hove Terors and me are missing Jake's Journal. When are you going to update it again!!

Lovely pics; a lot of Hammer films were made on Hampstead Heath as well (my home town) and so was the ever ancient Adam Adamant(circa 1960's) with the lovely Gerald Harper, lol!!! My Magnolia is still in ever so small buds, hoping it will keep that way until the nicer weather comes back, but we have brilliant sunshine here at the moment instead of the clouds they have forecast!
Such a pretty day. Enjoyed the walk in the park. Liked the cool dude shot at the end. LOL. So cute. Now do you all celebrate St. Pat's like we do over here? I have no clue. LOL. Sonya
I had to laugh I'm listening to Knock on Wood and looking at pictures of trees LOL you couldn't make that up could you LOL.........Great pictures especially the ones of Jake :-) Love the last one xx
What a beautiful entry....all the photos were wonderful. It was sooooooo nice to see Jake...so fit and well. Hope each day this week, brings you a blessing...hugs and love, Joyce
I just loved this series of pics. #15 and #16 really took my breath away! The sun through the trees is so pretty! Jake looks like he is smiling in each photo of him! And Roman...he's getting so big!! Not a baby anymore! Wow he's growing up so fast. Good pic of your "cool dudes." LOL! Enjoyed this and thank you for sharing it. Pam
