A tangled pile of lobster pots I discovered down by the harbour. They look worse than unravelling a complicated piece of knitting.

About Me
- Reflection Through The Seasons
- I live in a small Welsh village which is situated in the southern tip of the Snowdonia National Park. Its an area of true outstanding natural beauty. We have the Cambrian mountains to the east of us and the coast of Cardigan Bay out to the west. My husband and I moved to Wales from The Cotswolds in England 19 years ago. We bought the old village Police Station, which we have worked tirelessly renovating ever since. You could say its a real labour of love. I have retired after working many years in the travel business, this now leaves me free to pursue the many things in life that I enjoy.

Hi Marion, I love your blog. I was here once before (found you on Alice's blog) but don't think I left a comment. What a lovely picture this it. I love reminders of the sea!! I can almost smell the salt water and seaweed.
That may just put some man in a sour mood to untangle things eh? Interesting picture....we sure don't have anything like that where we live...smile.
Oh Marion, you live near the woods, and the mountains, AND the sea? Is your village called Heaven?
Marion, I like your pictures and your blog. I also love going through antique shops. I like the picture of the lobster boxes. Check my blog out sometime, I am new at this blogging thing.
what a 'salty' photo - I too can almost smell the salt and sea air in it.....
Marion- Thanks for stopping in my blog. I love looking at the lobster pots and your book corner.
I will stop in again and visit. I love looking at blogs of people all around the world.
Marion - thanks for always stopping by my part of the world - aka garden girls blog....would you mind if I added this blog to my list of links?
Thanks to Kerri, Maggie Ann, Alice, Sharon, Krissie & Wendy for your lovely comments. I'm pleased you liked the lobster picture, yes, I think it does give that salty sea air look.
Kerrie, thank you for you lovely email, I been trying to reply, but big probs with my computer this weekend & my email facility isn't working at the moment, so I'll reply asap..
I had to smile at your comment Alice, yes, I do think this little bit of Wales is Heaven!
Krissie, I'd be delighted if you added me to your links. Thanks everyone. I haven't had much time to venture into blog world since the weekend. Wish me luck. Marion
