Top o' the mornin!


With technology, sending an email or visiting blog friends, searching for something on the Internet is all great, until the system fails and you realize how much you rely on this service.
Being offline was not what I was planning and on Monday found that the router had stopped working and  we were no longer connected to the big wide world.


The knock on the door yesterday, when the courier delivered the package was wonderful and now very happy to be back again.


With the date been the 17th March... Saint Patricks day  thought it appropriate that I share a few green pictures
 the Chateau we stayed, in Saumur France

Harvesting the olives will soon take place here, as they are ripening well and we seem to have a bumper crop this year

For each petal on the shamrock
This brings a wish your way 
Good health, good luck and happiness
for today and everyday

Do you wear something green today?
Hope all is well with you and I look forward to coming to visit soon

hugs
Carolyn

  1. I like all your green including the olives. Are the olives growing near you? Happy and blessed St. Patrick's Day.

    1. Thanks for visiting Terra. We have 12 olive trees growing on our property and it is exciting harvesting them, taking them away to be pressed and then having our own bottles of olive oil

  2. What a beautiful view of the water, dear Carolyn, and how lovely is that Chateau in France! Wonderful selections of 'greens' for St. Patrick's Day - yes, I'll be wearing the green! It is frustrating to have computer issues and it takes some time to figure it all out, too. Glad that all is well and you can share your lovely world with us once more. Hugs xo Karen

  3. That first picture is sooooo pretty, Carolyn. And your other green pics are perfect for the day. It's no fun when we have computer problems, that's for sure.

    Yes, I will wear green tomorrow. I bought a mint green shirt recently and will wear that. Thank you for the St. Patrick's Day wishes, dear Carolyn.

    love, ~Sheri

  5. It must be lovely to be able to enjoy your own freshly pressed olive oil - I wonder what Rue Murillo, Paris is like?

  25. Dearest Carolyn,
    Oh yes, we're feeling like being completely amputated from the world when no Internet is available.
    Glad you got it working again.
    Yes, I did wear green on three different occasions this week for St. Patrick's Day events. The weather is lovely and now doing some final work on our tax papers.
    Ready for Easter too!
    Hugs,
    Mariette
