I always thought they were two varieties of the same nut. We have several kinds of hazelnuts/filberts - some large and fat, others smaller and "thinner". All I know is that they provide much pleasure - the trees in spring are bright with their tassels, the nuts flavourful in fall.<br />I'll be back to read your blog - I enjoyed this post.Bev Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01270938389792314932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512869338404805014.post-77954029192155725942010-10-22T22:00:13.379-07:002010-10-22T22:00:13.379-07:00A very nice post, with lovely pictures.

I wonder what I will do when life truly quiets down. Will I be able to quiet my soul again? I worry.<br /><br />Thanks for your gentle thoughts.DebDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12594843598589340808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512869338404805014.post-32421297963375870762010-10-13T04:30:49.886-07:002010-10-13T04:30:49.886-07:00I loved your words in this post.

Interesting were the quotes about true romance...I shall ponder these thought as I go about my day, of course, attempting on my own to see with a Biblical perspective.<br /><br />I got your last message.

I need to read more by him (and I got two of his books for Christmas that I have still not read).Leslie https://www.blogger.com/profile/11216448707277968516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512869338404805014.post-34666056574074455262010-10-12T04:59:12.711-07:002010-10-12T04:59:12.711-07:00I enjoyed these last 2 posts of your trip, SO much...I enjoyed these last 2 posts of your trip, SO much! I used to love travel -- any travel. Now, like you, I love being home. But hearing of beauty elsewhere still stirs a longing in my heart to experience it, if not a longing in my legs to go :) I must find that Chesterton essay; I so agree with him. I write when my mind has lots of "down" time, when I'm home. If I'm working outside the home, I don't write.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7512869338404805014.post-15539342695551329252010-10-11T21:42:10.578-07:002010-10-11T21:42:10.578-07:00How wonderful to have your travels and your readin...How wonderful to have your travels and your reading cross informing you!
