Pictures help us write better.
Go to our private group Flickr page - Mrs. J's Flickr page.
Please upload pictures that will help us create stories with lots of details!
I have uploaded pictures from my recent trips. You may have some on your computer to upload or you may find some online. Please choose pictures with lots of action or detail. Pictures that contain landscapes, places, events, not ones focused on individual people.
