2-Alva Vanderbilt fought for women's rights & suffrage. (right to vote).

3- She is quoted as saying "Pray to God, She will help you."

4-She ( Alva) held a "coming out" party, with 400 guests, for her only daughter Consuelo.

5-At the party, 300 live hummingbirds were released, to hover around the indoor fountain.

Clouds on this evening added some mood to the scene with the Milky Way fighting to make its way into the sky over this northern Arizona landscape.

The warm light on the clouds is from Page, Arizona.

"Thank you very much for all your faves and stay healthy" 😃

Light from the quarter moon was fading behind some tall cliff face to the right off frame, adding some great shadows onto the rock formations there in Marble Canyon, Arizona.

This marble, I had it in a drawer for a long time, these little ones, were the ones that entertained us when we were children. Today I take a picture of it, with a background of lights, to make it stand out more.

Esta canica, la tenía en un cajón guardada desde hacía mucho tiempo, estas pequeñas, eran las que nos entretenían cuando eramos niños. Hoy le echo una foto, con un fondo con luces, para que destacara más.
