Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

J.  NOTL Strawberry Festival...a bagpiper in a kilt...



...beautiful ladies in their strawberry gear...



...jam-boy stirring the pot...



...Presbyterian organ pipes.

What more could one ask for?

Six pots of homemade jam and one hot-sweet mustard!
What a day!

p.s.  SO glad you are home safe V.  Sweet dreams!

    Sorry - put the comment into the wrong slot. My dad was RAF and BAC (Vickers) - almost the same letters! Happy father's day to them both, eh?
