Maria: Did you mean it? Would you marry me?
Matthew: Yes.
Maria: Why?
Matthew: Because I want to.
Maria: Not because you love me or anything like that, huh?
Matthew: I respect and admire you.
Maria: Isn't that love?
Matthew: No, that's respect and admiration. I think that's better than love.
Maria: How?
Matthew: When people are in love they do all sorts of crazy things. They get jealous, they lie, they cheat. They kill themselves. They kill each other.
Maria: It doesn't have to be that way.
Matthew: Maybe.
Maria: You'd be the father of a child you know isn't yours.
Matthew: Kids are kids, what does it matter?
Maria: Do you trust me?
Matthew: Do you trust me first?
Maria: I trust you.
Matthew: You sure?
Maria: Yes.
Matthew: Then marry me.
Maria: I'll marry you if you admit that respect, admiration, and trust equals love.
Matthew: OK. They equal love.

Everytime I turn off my computer, I hear Adrienne Shelly ask Martin Donovan if respect and admiration equal love.
RIP Adrienne Shelly, 1966-2006

You know you have your horses' complete trust when they let you hang out with them while they're laying down.
It hasn't been a good past week, but somehow being with my animals always makes it better.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.
This is a pop up fireworks stand that sets up somewhere along the highway each year. I've been trying to capture its essence for years and maybe I'm finally getting close.
He who believes in nobody knows that he himself is not to be trusted

There used to be an 18th-century orangery on the same site.
The current structure was built in 1854 to an E.W. Pugin design.
In 1912 the bow-fronted conservatory was converted by Lord Howard de Walden into a thatched mews for falcons.
This was restored in the 1980's following a fire.
The Hawk House is currently a thatched and open-fronted garden house.
Stourton, Warminster, Wiltshire, England
It is one of the best examples of the English landscape style of garden. Stourhead, in Wiltshire, is one of the National Trust’s most popular sites. It was given to the National Trust by the Hoare family in 1946. It is one of the most magnificent manor houses and gardens in the country.

Het is een van de beste voorbeelden van de Engelse landschapstuin. Stourhead, in Wiltshire, is een van de populairste sites van de National Trust. Het werd in 1946 door de familie Hoare aan de National Trust geschonken. Het is een van de mooiste landhuizen en tuinen van het land.

Went for something a little more dramatic after all of the silly stuff I've been doing lately. This is the tattoo on my left forearm along with a heart pendant I found in Mellina's jewelry box.
I need to get back into my photography so posting a winter scene taken at Croome Park National Trust yesterday.
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.
