Golden Gate National Park, South Africa

Some viewers asked where my South Africa photos are.

I am still here for another five days, but time and good internet access are quite limited.

I thought you might like to see the rustic farmhouse in an isolated field in the

Golden Gate Highlands where we stayed one night last week.  It is on the west side of the

Drakensbergs, near Lesotho, just outside the Free State town of Clarens.

Two beautiful horses visited the next morning.

Artisan Gelato

Like gelato?  Sorbetto?  Macarons?

You should visit Artisan Gelato in Fort Myers, Florida.

Vanderbilt Presbyterian Church

This church and its very high, pointed steeple always calls to me.  

It is on Immokalee Road in Naples.

It reminds me of the wooden Seiffen Church that is

such a common ornament in German Christmas scenes. 

Looking Out

Sue was born in Missouri, moved to West Virginia when

she was married and later moved to Oklahoma.

She now lives in East Naples with her daughter.

Sue likes to find a bench at a quiet part of Naples Beach.

She reads and she looks out at the gulf.

The Wind in the Willows

This dapper gentlefrog welcomes customers at a

major intersection in Naples' main shopping

street, Fifth Avenue South.

Chihuly Ceiling

The Baker Museum in Naples has a ceiling

made from the wonderful brightly colored glass

of the studio of Dale Chihuly.

The ceiling casts reflections on the plain white walls below.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to my American viewers.

Thanksgiving this year is being spent with daughter Susie and son-in-law Wes
in Johannesburg, South Africa.  Right now we are at the lovely
Cathedral Peak Hotel in the majestic
Drakensberg Mountains east of Johannesburg.

We eat well here, too, thanks to Jerome and the rest of the staff!
All the best to everyone.
