Hallo Marita, I have now thoroughly enjoyed taking a walk thru this gorgeous album. The flowers are exquisite to say the least. When you think you have seen them all, along comes our heavenly Father and shows us He never stops creating beauty. Enjoy the week ahead. Hugs Faith

Liebe Marita! I do not know how I missed picking a flower. May I have 025 please? Thank you. Blessed are the ones who say it with flowers! Best wishes, Suresh

Dear Marita! Thanks a million for stopping by my 'Canadian Rockies' album and for all the extensive comments you have penned (Oops! I meant typed!). Much appreciated. I know you are very busy after your return from Germany, so it makes it all the more special that you spent time with the album. Mit herzlichsten Gruesse! Suresh

said suresh_krishna 2008.07.22 at 05:33:45 PDT

Hi Marita: Thanks so much for your comments on my apple blossom pic which you suggested I enter in the dof contest. It's funny because just before I read that message I had just looked at that album and wondered about entering that photo. So you gave me the impetus to do that! Thanks for your suggestion. Sandy

said nanagahma 2008.07.17 at 18:45:49 PDT

Marita, I remember visiting this album but I cannot see my message in the guestbook so I will mention again that this album and its twin are both very beautiful! I already wait for next year's spring since it's too hot now! Thanks for your very kind greetings on my featured album yesterday. I have to join you asking what took them so long... I hope to see your albums featured sooner. They all deserve the honor (even if a featured album these days is not what used to be in the past). Have a wonderful day! Yair.

said ykarelic4 2008.07.15 at 04:21:48 PDT

Marita, Good to hear from you. My life has become close impossible to keep under control; it is all good. So, don't feel like the lone ranger in not keeping up. I still get to see what is getting posted, just no time to make a quick note. Hope you had a great time. Will check in from time to time to see what you've brought back. Take care, Stan

Bonjour Marita, This album is as fabulous as the first time I saw it. Happy to hear that your trip in Germany was so great, it's always a pleasure to come back home. Don't be sorry to the responses to the entries, I have the same problem sometimes. And thank you so much for your beautiful visit to my album "la grande traversee" and your nice comments, I appreciate so much. Have a nice week end, hugs, marielle

said mariellefrigault 2008.06.27 at 17:15:41 PDT

Hallo Marita! Ich weiss nicht, wann du die letzten Blumen angefügt hast, jedenfalls ist es immer eine Freude, in dieses Album zurückzukommen! Vielen Dank für alle Deine lieben Eintragungen bei uns, die du trotz viel Arbeit geschriebn hast! Ich kann mir vorstellen, wie gross der Klima-Unterschied, von Deutschland nach Houston! Wir waren einmal nur in Housten, an einem Kongress (Geologie) mitten im Sommer: es war soooo heiss und feucht dazu! Dann Gewitter und Sturm, wo es wagrecht regnete, schüttete! Dann dampfte der Boden! Du wirst wohl nicht in der Stadt wohnen, eher ausserhalb? Bon courage! Viel liebe Grüsse, Käthi

said oertlif_3 2008.06.25 at 05:38:07 PDT

Dear Marita, missed you, hope you had a great time, I know how happy you must have been to be back there. I know, I would be. But since i have no relatives left over there, I don't think I will ever get back there anymore, but will enjoy whatever pictures people will put up from there. Hope you get used to living stateside again, hugs, Trudy

Dear Marita, this album is also a feast for the eyes and soul, I`m still smiling, dreaming, flying and trying to find the magnolia`s perfume somewhere around me after watching all these colourful, delicate flowers and the beautiful Spring scenes.. I can`t wait to download many, many of these charming photos and to write comments on the ones that I love the most!:) Thank you sooo much for them! Warmest regards and best wishes, with love, Andreea :)

Happy Easter worldtripper! This is a fine album with sheer masterpieces. Getting me in the springmood, which is great cause us cowboys don´t like winters. I am bit worried reading that you are gone for so long. Not easy for a pardner, but I hope you will have a great time on your trip to wherever you go, but promise to leave a message now and then about your adventures... Greetz, Tjebbe

Liebe Marita, viele Dank für Deine Einladung - gerne bin ich ihr gefolgt und habe mir ein Bild ausgesucht. Eine sehr nette Idee - auch wenn nicht mehr ganz neu. Du bist bis Juni verrreist? Hoffentlich Ferien oder sonst eine interessante Reise. Ich wünsche Dir dabei auf jeden Fall viel Freude, Spass und gute Bilder! Frohe Ostern und herzliche Grüsse aus der Schweiz (wo der Winter wieder Einzug gehalten hat). Mike
