Wow, so beautiful that words are hard to describe it all. Every time I go back and look at the pictures I see things I missed the first time. Thank you for another wonderful article Neil!

I had not heard about your accident either. So sorry to hear that your problems will linger for such a long time. I hope you recover more quickly than they think. Group hug

Dear Susan and Chris, thank you for your most kind comments. I hope you are well? After months of cold rain the sun is out and it is 95.8 F here which is far too hot for us. Iy is like a sauna outside.
Keep well and cool.
Group hug
Neil.
