I’ve recently spent a week in Portugal and took these cute murals on the electric boxes in Silves yesterday. Very apt for Debbie’s one word Sunday

Also posting to John’s Cell pic Sunday
They really brighten up these cobblestoned streets.

I sat outside yesterday morning with my coffee, enjoying the early morning cool weather. I looked up at the sky and wondered if the rain was coming or going. All of a sudden through the haze a rainbow appeared. As I sat in silent wonder, it seemed to become brighter. A lovely treat for a Saturday morning I thought.

Debbie from Travel with Intent hosts One Word Sunday, and as you’ve probably guessed the theme is square this week.
A small gallery of squares, all squared away.


“Being a square keeps you from going around in circles.”
J. Vernon McGee


“I’m beat to the square, and square to the beat, and that’s my vocation.”
William Everson
This week for one word Sunday, Debbie at Travel with Intent has chosen “Pond or Ponder”. I’ve found a few with quotes to go with my photos. Stay a while and ponder.
It is better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a mighty ocean


Our little fish pond, built in 2012. Different fish and some more plants, but still going strong. DH’s (Dear Hubby) hobby.
“I have found it a singular luxury to talk across the pond to a companion on the opposite side”
~ Henry David Thoreau ~

“Remain in the world, act in the world, do whatsoever is needful, and yet remain transcendental, aloof, detached, a lotus flower in the pond.”
― Osho, The Secret of Secrets


It’s the smallest fish in the pond that has the most room to swim – or the smallest cow!

This Sunday’s word is Arches hosted by Debbie from Travel with Intent. Starting with a quote I found on Pinterest, a line from a conversation with Kublai Khan.
