Great photos. I can almost taste the wind and smell the wet leaves, even though I sit here under the fluorescent lights in a world of concrete and asphalt. I miss the mountains.

PLEASE READ WARNING LABEL in this week's OVERHEARD and SEEN.
This is NOT a JOKE, although it still feels like one to me.
I can't believe that Walmart or any other company can sell us a food service product with lead in it
simply by putting a warning label on the cord that says WASH YOUR HANDS!!!

PLEASE CHECK YOUR OWN HOMES.
Check your children's toys and rooms first.
Check your kitchens and bathrooms next.

You don't really know me but you can take it to the bank that I want you and your children to BE SAFE.


What are the health effects of lead poisoning?
The National Safety Council says:
There are many different health effects associated with elevated blood lead levels. Young children under the age of six are especially vulnerable to lead's harmful health effects, because their brains and central nervous system are still being formed.

For them, even very low levels of exposure can result in:
reduced IQ
learning disabilities
attention deficit disorders
behavioral problems
stunted growth
impaired hearing
kidney damage

At high levels of exposure, a child may become:
mentally retarded
fall into a coma
and even die

Within the last ten years, children have died from lead poisoning in New Hampshire and in Alabama. Lead poisoning has also been associated with juvenile delinquency and criminal behavior.

In adults, lead can:
increase blood pressure
cause fertility problems
nerve disorders
muscle and joint pain
irritability
memory or concentration problems

It takes a significantly greater level of exposure to lead for adults than it does for kids to sustain adverse health effects.

TAKE CARE OF YOU and YOUR FAMILY.
Please pass this along to your friends and family.

They are all interesting pictures, as usual. But the one I especially like is of the field with the stormy clouds above it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RIVER RAT!!!!

Connie, it's great to hear from you and I'm sorry about this patch of slow times for you and yours. We both like to post photos and it really can get expensive on the BlogStream. I've had to pay again a couple of months ago and now I got another message that I've expired again! I'll have to check out your other site as I miss seeing your photographs and hearing from you.

I pray that 2008 is one filled with blessings and happy times for you! God bless ~~~ Hugs, Rita
