One Hour...

" A man who dares to waste one hour of his life has not discovered the value of life."
Charles R. Darwin

* * * * * * * * * *




While on a recent adventure...  Dave and I stumbled upon this beautiful old Church in Denmark S.C.
we wandered around making photo's and watching birds bathe in a puddle from an early morning rain..
I loved the way the towers rose into the sky... the stained glass windows and the polished wood..

I have to tell you that Dave was glad when we walked out of this shop..
had either of us broken anything we would have been in deep trouble..
this dainty..  delicate.. dish had a price of $240.. every time I picked something up I heard Dave hold his breath until I safely returned it to it's spot on the crowded table or shelf..
