Here's some of my fave animals-in-the-wild shots!
I'd like to meet:
Aphrodite as she is apparently my very own personal goddess!
The derivation of the name (Latin Aprilis): The traditional etymology from the Latin aperire, "to open," in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to "open." Since most of the Roman months were named in honor of divinities, and as April was sacred to Venus, the Festum Veneris et Fortunae Virilis being held on the first day, it has been suggested that Aprilis was originally her month Aphrilis, from her Greek name Aphrodite (Aphros), or from the Etruscan name Apru.
Music:
Everything but county (except for Crystal Gayle and the Dixie Chicks)! I listen to a lot of hip-hop and its my favorite music to dance to.
