Thunderstorms and heat waves, we'll survived them all. Art inspires everyone : Sunflowers have become more beloved because of Vincent van Gogh's beautiful paintings. The sunflower is one of my favourites in everyday life I was allowed to take a picture of my lovely neighbour Lisa 93 year, she proudly shows me the beautiful flowers in her vegetable garden, especially her look in her eyes and the nice conversation I just love it ! Lisa is also one of the four ladies who, together with 3 other ladies, form a very strong team of the 'Leading ladies' of Vrebos Everberg in Kortenberg, I like to listen to what she has to tell me about her fine family history and humor, every times very fascinating with so much pride and wisdom On July 30th, we celebrate International Friendship Day. This day was proclaimed by the United Nations to emphasize the importance of friendships for the promotion of peace Helianthus annuus

Snow field in the Park van Tervuren, Keizerinnedreef tree lined lane traffic free ~ A snowy landscape is not forever, the memory of it is already 43 years ago I cycled home from school in all weathers, the 6 km ride was amazing, every day I rode past the ponds and the museum, it did me good to breathe the pure oxygen it gave me a lot of energy. I like to remember the everyday beautiful things and it makes me very happy to be there again, all those beautiful memories come back as if it were yesterday, it was so nice because time flies, it is as if time has stood still here
