Ga Music Maker ~ Claire's photostream
|
I am a 65 year-old woman, married to a United Methodist minister for 36 years. We have one daughter. and an adorable cat, Hannabelle. I love sacred and classical music.I play the organ and the piano and I sing some. I love Christmas and Christmas music, and I am an avid collector of several things. I love photography, particularly nature, and raise Swallowtail Butterflies in the summer time . . . We moved recently to a beautiful part of the state of Georgia, about 90 miles northeast of Atlanta, following my husband's appointment to the Carnesville-Vanna United Methodist Circuit. .
I am finding this to be a fabulous place both to live and take pictures. We lived in this area 25 plus years ago, and in many ways, I feel that my heart has finally returned "home" and I am gaining "peace" - - - by leaps and bounds.
I'm going to enjoy being retired for a while, but I don't want anyone to think that means I won't be busy doing the things I love to do!!!

"I am fairly new to flickr and Claire is one of the first people I had "met" thru our love of nature, birds, Christmas and butterflies. If you look at Claire's photostream you can see what a truly wonderful person she is. She see's beauty in all things and shares it with you. Though we have not met in person, I think of her as a friend. If you haven't already, be sure to check our her wonderful photos."
