I was drinking coffee with Abby yesterday and the postman arrived. Elsie clambered on to the large basket by the window whilst Abby dealt with the post. Then, Abby encouraged Elsie to jump into her arms. Usually Elsie is picked up and swirled round, but this jump required Elsie to trust her mother to catch her before being whirled through the air. By the time I had my camera ready they were on jump 2 or 3 . . . there were about 8 in all. This little series is of the moments in between the jumps

Do they mean to say that we should trust people or that we shouldn't trust people? I don't know.
Anyway, this graffiti is very close to the auto. mechanic promotional sign that I've posted
This dog knew none of the visitors who streamed by him and his team. He sat so calmly and happily greeted everyone, allowing them to pet him without complaint. I'm not sure who's happier in this photo: the man or the dog.
This is the same dog who went Zen moments after this shot was taken.
You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don't trust enough.

(FOR SALE, $400.00, framed) COMPLETE TRUST (8"W X 10"H--oil on canvas) I saw this child sleeping on her father's shoulder while waiting in line at a local restaurant. It occurred to me that it took complete trust to fall asleep while someone was holding you off the ground. This painting represents the extraordinary amount of trust a child has in a parent.

A May Day Bank Holiday Monday visit to Canons Ashby, a National Trust run property in Northamptonshire.
I first saw the Priory Church of St Mary when we first arrived from the car park, and it was the last place we visited at Canons Ashby before we left.
Canons Ashby Priory was an Augustinian priory at Canons Ashby, Northamptonshire, England.
The Priory was founded by Stephen la Leye on a site to the south of the present church between 1147 and 1151 in the reign of Henry II.
In 1253 the Augustinians were granted a licence to dig the Norwell, which still exists north of the present church, to supply water to the priory.
In 1537 after the Dissolution of the Monasteries the Crown granted the priory and its estates to Sir Francis Bryan, a close ally of Henry VIII. Bryan held the estate for only about a year before selling it in 1538 to Sir John Cope, a wealthy Banbury lawyer. Sir John's daughter Elizabeth inherited what is thought to have been the priory farmhouse [wrong – Wilkyns farm was part of John Dryden's inheritance. Copes Ashbie – across the road – was inherited by Elizabeth's brother, who died early leaving his sons as Wards of the Dryden family]. In 1551 she married John Dryden, who extended the building to form the earliest parts of Canons Ashby House.
Part of the building survives: the Church of England parish church of St Mary dates from about 1250 and this, together with Canons Ashby House, is now owned by the National Trust. Its power and size can be judged by its outlying buildings which cover a large area of the surrounding countryside. The remains of the priory's hospitalium survive as the monastic building centred on the parish church of Maidford, about 5 miles (8 km) away.

Hardwick Hall
An Elizabethan Masterpiece
Built in 1590-9 by Robert Smythson for Elizabeth Talbot, Countess of Shrewsbury.
Elizabeth was more famously known as ‘Bess of Hardwick’ one of the most formidable women of Elizabethan England and the matriarch of the Cavendish family.
Hardwick is one of the earliest English interpretations of Italian Renaissance architecture, and stands as one of the greatest of all Elizabethan houses.
Huge grids of glass are used to great effect in this rectangular, turreted building, which caused leading observers of that time to rhyme: ‘Hardwick Hall, more window than wall’.
The impressive twin towers are each crowned with a balustrade incorporating an ‘E.S.’ motif (for Elizabeth Shrewsbury) and, unusually, each of the 3 main storeys has a ceiling higher than the one below.
Hardwick boasts arguably the most spectacular Elizabethan interiors in England, with plasterwork by Abraham Smith, overmantels by Thomas Accres, and a classical screen by William Griffin, all dating from the 1590s.
Hardwick was transferred to the National Trust from Bess’s descendants, the Dukes of Devonshire, in 1959.
Grade l listed.
My Image
Bess of Hardwick
(Detail)
A portrait of Bess in her early thirties, painted in London around 1560 by an artist in the circle of Hans Worth, a fashionable painter from the Netherlands.
The fine clothing, the headdress (or bellment), strings of pearls around her neck and four gold and gem rings all indicate her high status.
She is holding a pair of leather gloves, traditionally given as a wedding gift, which indicate that this portrait may have been painted to celebrate her marriage, in 1559, to her third husband Sir William St Loe.

Nymans is an English garden in Haywards Heath, Sussex. It was developed, starting in the late 19th century, by three generations of the Messel family, and was brought to renown by Leonard Messel.
In 1953 Nymans became a National Trust property.[1] Nymans is the origin of many sports, selections and hybrids, both planned and serendipitous, some of which can be identified by the term nymansensis, "of Nymans". Eucryphia × nymansensis (E. cordifolia × E. glutinosa) is also known as E. "Nymansay". Magnolia × loebneri 'Leonard Messel', Camellia 'Maud Messel' and Forsythia suspensa 'Nymans', with its bronze young stems, are all familiar shrub to gardeners.
History
In the late 19th century, Ludwig Messel, a member of a German Jewish family, settled in England and bought the Nymans estate, a house with 600 acres on a sloping site overlooking the picturesque High Weald of Sussex. There he set about turning the estate into a place for family life and entertainment, with an Arts and Crafts-inspired garden room where topiary features contrast with new plants from temperate zones around the world. Messel's head gardener from 1895 was James Comber, whose expertise helped form plant collections at Nymans of camellias, rhododendrons, which unusually at the time were combined with planting heather (Erica) eucryphias and magnolias. William Robinson advised in establishing the Wild Garden.[2]
His son Colonel Leonard Messel succeeded to the property in 1915 and replaced the nondescript Regency house with the picturesque stone manor, designed by Sir Walter Tapper and Norman Evill in a mellow late Gothic/Tudor style. He and his wife Maud (daughter of Edward Linley Sambourne) extended the garden to the north and subscribed to seed collecting expeditions in the Himalayas and South America.
The garden reached a peak in the 1930s and was regularly opened to the public. The severe reduction of staff in World War II was followed in 1947 by a disastrous fire in the house, which survives as a garden ruin. The house was partially rebuilt and became the home of Leonard Messel's daughter[3] Anne Messel and her second husband the 6th Earl of Rosse. At Leonard Messel's death in 1953 it was willed to the National Trust with 275 acres of woodland, one of the first gardens taken on by the Trust. Lady Rosse continued to serve as Garden Director.
