HAPPY BIRTH DAY, Beloved!

Because thine eyes are open, I can see;
Because thou art thyself, ’tis therefore I am me.”

Glenda, he was a wonderful Dave!
Lisa, we were vacationing in Marrakesh and spent a few days camping in the Sahara Desert.
My goodness – what was he doing there? The Bedouin are an interesting people to me.
Ah sweet Sandra … what a wonderful Dave you had.
Fondly,
Glenda

Ginny, would if I could -grin-.
Charlsey, thank you for visiting and commenting.
Debbie, thank you and I tried to remember to deep breath all day.
Charlotte, I took the photo and yes, we did trust the Bedouins. It was a tourism trip and like I told one of the young men, "hurting tourists is bad for business." Braheim's mother was concerned because her son was spending the weekend with Americans. It was so funny! Perhaps I should blog about that, eh?
That's so cool about At Last at your wedding. Etta James sings it so greatly.
Forgot to say that this is a lovely tribute to a husband that is sorely missed. I love, love, love the song "At Last". I had it played at my wedding reception.
Dave looks like a very interesting fellow. I would love to have talked to him about this experience. Were you there? Did you trust these Bedouins?
((HUGS))
When you give blessings ~ you receive blessings. It appears that you two blessed each other a lot. Thank you for sharing this special day with all of us.
