“Hold fast to dreams - For if dreams die - Life is a broken-winged bird - That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams - For when dreams go - Life is a barren field - Frozen with snow.” - from the poem 'Dreams' by - Langston Hughes - photo of lake at Peterson Park, Florida, US © All rights reserved The thoughts/photo idea came from this e-publication of Our State magazine - All about the Great North State - North Carolina - full of history, humor, recipes - and things not found in history books. When the tape of Martin Luther King, Jr was located - I was hooked on where, how, when it happened. Hope you get to read the history ! www.ourstate.com/dawn-of-the-dream/?utm_source=ActiveCampaign&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Honor+MLK+s+Legacy%2C+Make+Chocolate+Bread+Pudding%2C+Celebrate+Southern+Food%2C+and+More%21&utm_campaign=2020-01-18+We+Live+Here

- what a fascinating time to be at the lake - spotted the Little Blue Heron on the bank - wading .. looking for a tasty morsel or two - when all of a sudden - here comes a fly-in Little Blue - they did some touch landing type of flying - since they are in breeding feathers - perhaps it is a ritual - if any other shots turn out decently - will post - it was a beautiful flurry of blue ! www.picmonkey.com © All Rights Reserved
