Sun Rays
While driving through Virginia today and taking these shots I had no idea that I would also be making my seven hundredth post. On June 22, 2007 I made my very first post titled welcome:CLICK HERE TO VIEW. In exactly eleven days The Painted Veil will be one year old. I truly had no clue that my anniversary was approaching. And I must say that I am completely astonished that in under a year I have completed seven hundred posts. I think I shall spend the next few days just savoring this accomplishment, by taking a ton of pictures and making rounds to visit everyone, that is if my signal will allow. I do so hope everyone will join me in my celebration. After all, if not for all of you my dear friends, readers, and supporters, I wouldn't still be here. Thank you all so very very much from the bottom of my heart.

Whoa! Very beautifully taken pictures.
Congrats on your 700th post!
I wonder how wide is the Mississppi River? I'm trying to calculate how long it would take Zubli to swim across it, struggling with two rattlesnakes at the same time! hahaha.....
I think I might be the first - tee hee.
My life would have been so much quieter if you'd never started - oh well.
[Many congratulations Jackie - fascinating going back to your first post - *hugs* and TAKE CARE!!]
