REVERB 13 Day 6 Memories are made of this

“True wisdom lies in gathering the precious things out of each day as it goes by.”— E.S. Bouton
There are so many “precious things” that are presented to us each day; discoveries and treasures found in simple moments, memories we wish to store in our hearts and keep with us forever.

What precious things have you gathered in 2013?
Which memories from this year do you wish to keep with you always?


My year started off with a memorable trip to San Francisco with my daughter Debbie to do some sightseeing and visit my grandson Cory.



On my bucket list was to walk the Golden Gate Bridge.Together the three of us walked across and back again.



Here I am getting ready to take the path up to the bridge.










And here's my daughter and her son Cory, my grandson.






To wind the year down my daughter Cassie and her husband flew out from Washington state for a two week visit.



While she was here my Grand daughter Stephanie was married under the Trinity Oak in Jacksonville, FL in the beautiful dress her aunt, my daughter Deb, made for her.........








....carrying the paper rose I made for her and wearing a necklace belonging to her great grandmother Dorothy Sperber




What a memorable year it has been for me!

  1. Darlene these are such wonderful photos of warm and beautiful times in your past year. What was it like walking across the Golden Gate Bridge? How lovely! And I like it that I shared the part about your granddaughter's wedding through your blogging.

    1. WOW Ruth! It would seem that walking across a bridge would be just another day of walking but to cross the Golden Gate Bridge on foot, walking where millions have walked since the bridge was built was one of the most surreal feelings of all time for me...add to that the perfect weather which was unusual for that time of year and to watch the fog bank roll in from the ocean side...eventually obscuring the bridge completely...just inspiring
