  1. Text and photo goes so well together.
    I think every city I have been to, have at least one bench for old men and good friends!

  3. I love photos of men and women sitting and enjoying themselves. I can imagine the conversation, too...lively and good natured.

  7. Friendship... is what really matters... without friendship, all else is empty. Even the "virtual" friendships we create here in the blogosphere are important.

    Wishing you an excellent year ahead in 2011 !
