Oh, the market is sadly closed since 17 minutes!
ReplyDeleteVery sad sign on the ground there... hope for work on Monday...
Sending good wishes your way as work comes to you! So you might have wanted herbs or the dragon?
DeleteI am sure the Flowering Bridge will be rebuilt. It was so loved. The flowers still blooming despite flood and mud are such a hopeful sign.
ReplyDeleteIt had so much love and whimsey in it, yes, those people will bring it back, after they have safe housing and roads around there.
Delete...the plants show resilience!
ReplyDeleteSome simple plants can live through almost anything.
DeleteHello, Barb
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos. My favorite is the donkeys packed with supplies. I love the cute dog, the giraffes and the penguin images. It is nice to see the flowers coming up out of the mud, I would think it is a good sign. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a wonderful weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Those mule trains helped a lot of people who otherwise would have waited for someone to either hike up or maybe drop supplies from a helicopter!
DeleteHolding you folks in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'm so grateful for all the help that has been offered.
DeletePenguins are fun to see, they remind me of little kids running and playing. Flowers are strong and still popping up in the mud. I love the dog painting, he's a long one. :)
ReplyDeleteI definitely did a double-take when I saw it, smiled and captured it for use here with other critters.
DeleteLovely takes for the theme! Specially the giraffes!
