You did get some beautiful, moody foggy pictures while laying there. <BR/><BR/>Your salvia is just beautiful! Love the color.<BR/><BR/>Speaking of color - your last post was also great. I think your haircolor and style are so neat. You must give everyone the impression of a little blonde pixie. It looks great! <BR/><BR/> I did laugh about hiding your chin though. I tried that and took a bunch of pictures with my hand at my chin. My sister saw them and howled and said it looked like someone was choking me! <BR/><BR/> I sometimes fantasize about having just a "little" chin tuck and tightening. Nothing drastic .....
