Those are lovely, thought I could do without the snow…

Gorgeous! I think the bottom two are my favs.

I love these. Amazing how each gives a different feeling!

Beautiful! You should have them framed as a series! I love it. (although I agree with Jazz, bleuch to the snow!)

Wow! That bottom picture is amazing with the pink! I like the look of the top one, I love avocados. That is what they are isn’t it?

Wow… Just wow.

Jessie: Thanks! Yes, I loved how the sun was setting over the down town area. Of course, I played with the colors a bit. Avocodos? Yeppers! Such a good little meal, that sope!

Jazz: I’m glad you liked the pics. Thanks for letting me know!

Now I’m homesick!!

Funny, I’d not realized that the elaborate iron work fences that greeted visitors to one’s ranch were lacking here!! But, I’ve never seen a single one of these here in the Georgia countryside. My dad had many a ranch in Texas…and most often these entry gates, some windmills, and even sometimes oil rigs were scattered about.
Thanks for sharing.

As the rain pours down in buckets and the wind howls here in Vancouver…It is so yucky outside today, I find it a relief and a delight to see your hot sunny photos of a place I have never been to. And that avocado creation looks soooo delicious. Thanks Paula for posting these pics. Very nice indeed. You have cheered up at least one sun deprived person.

Thanks so much, Mary Jane! Sorry to hear it’s been so dismal in Vancouver. I’m in Montreal now, and though it’s sunny presently, it’s too cold for shorts and slaps (my uniform when in South Texas). These photos, too, will help keep me warm on the cold, snowy days!

Oh yes…. that is Texas! …and it’s still warm here too!

Wow, that is awesome! Love it! xoxo

me too!

Congrats! I love that expression on the back cover... WHAT is she up to??

And I second the sparkles for EK. When we get done with her, she'll be picking sparkles out of her hair for years!

Sweet. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy.

Thanks, Nova! And yes, sparkle party for EK!

Thanks, Jen! :)

OMG yayyyyyyz! I love how it looks--your books are always so gorgeous and perfect! Congrats!

I've seen better

Leefatay, I know you have. :) I'll kick you later.

thanks for the pics! And, I love that look on her face on the back cover! by the way, do you know the girls who model for the covers?

Oh, they're gorgeous!

Best of luck at your interview!

One of our local museums has something like that and it's a horse too! It is a little more vague in its form though. Pretty awesome!

Those are so gorgeous.
AND OMG JESS I got my Young Rider today, and there was this three page interview with YOU! I was so happy, I was, like squealing! Congrats!

PS. WITH PICTURES! (:

These are driftwood horse sculptures by Heather Jansch who live and work in Westcountry of England. Its amazing how she managed to put those branches together to form such an art.

By the way, here is her web site:

Deborah Butterfield does the same thing. Her's are cast in bronze. Very elegant.

You are THE BEST!!!

Thanks so much!!

I was the BIGGEST dork. LOL. I talked to myself out loud. "OMG! It's Alyson's book!"

Yeah, I had to slink off after that...

I am SO going to have to buy THE SEASON....I wasn't aware it was out yet! And EVERMORE also looks amazing!

OMG! Jess! AWESOME!
THANK YOU!!!!

Awesomee! I think the blurriness (is that a word??) of The Season is cool.

Oh, and I posted your guest blog!

Cool pix, Jessica! Made my day. I'm a total dork at bookstores, too, telling anyone within hearing distance which books are good (usually always those of my author friends) and turning them to face out. Thanks for posting these!

Great pictures! It's so fun to see everyone's covers.

Beautiful and so nice of them! I'm so happy for you! :)

Aw, they are lovely!
