...three weeks later (following "Striving 1")
After several inches of snow that managed to stick when all of our mini snowfalls didn't, and freezing temperatures halting the emerging plants, we finally have flowers on the trees and the grey palette is beginning to lift.

To me she looked like a Ballerina with the pot at her hip and the bucket in her hands, her steps were of a dancer! I was thinking if she learns either Baratha Nattiyam or any other dance, she would excel in it.
This sweet girl does her chores around the house before going to school. Her parents are construction workers.

You know when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales? That fantasy of what your life would be – white dress, prince charming who'd carry you away to a castle on a hill. You'd lie in your bed at night and close your eyes and you had complete and utter faith. Santa clause, the tooth fairy, prince charming –they were so close you could taste them. But eventually you grow up and one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. Most people turn to the things and people they can trust. But the thing is, it's hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely because almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope and faith that one day they would open their eyes and it would all come true.
At the end of the day, faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale is slightly different than your dream. The castle, well it may not be a castle. And it's not so important that it's happily ever after – just that it's happy right now. See, once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you. And once in a while, people may even take your breath away.

Thank you everyone.
At The Philadelphia International Flower Show.
Please check out my set for the show.
This shot (as all of my Flower Show shots) was indeed taken on Fat Tuesday. This is such a festive looking image that I decided to name it in honor of the holiday. I also celebrated by having some amazing gumbo at the Reading Terminal Market, YUM!
Gull in Whitby
UPDATE MAY 2011 - #37 on Explore for 25.05.2011 - thank you very much everybody! :-)
Had a visit to Whitby few weeks ago, I forgot how nice this place is having not been there in a while but plan to have a revisit to get a photo of the harbour and pier hopefully when it s a bit quieter.
Anyway, whilst walking back off the pier noticed this chap just sitting on the wall. He was sitting there quite nicely and some nice person decided to give him their left over chips, he looked at them and just turned his nose up at it which I thought is very unusual, maybe the Gulls in Whitby must be well fed. Anyway, the Gull you see in the background flying away was sitting with him and then just flew off which he didn't seem happy about and then promptly started squawking and this photo was the result, he was almost playing up to the camera :-)
Hope everyone's week is going well.

Information
Gulls (often informally called seagulls) are birds in the family Laridae. They are most closely related to the terns (family Sternidae) and only distantly related to auks, skimmers, and more distantly to the waders. Until recently most gulls were placed in the genus Larus, but this arrangement is now known to be polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of several genera. Gulls are typically medium to large birds, usually grey or white, often with black markings on the head or wings. They typically have harsh wailing or squawking calls, stout, longish bills, and webbed feet. Gull species range in size from the Little Gull, at 120 g (4.2 oz) and 29 cm (11.5 inches), to the Great Black-backed Gull, at 1.75 kg (3.8 lbs) and 76 cm (30 inches).

Here is my third and final entry to the tips and bricks contest, a microscale build of set 497 Galaxy Explorer. I made sure to include every detail, from the ship to the base and satellite, to even the small rover. It does fit inside the 20x20x20 requirement, and I made sure that the ship does not extend past the base, which is 20 studs long. This was also my first attempt using a new editing software called gimp.
Thanks for checking it out!
