Wow, Andy! This entry left me speechless! Not unusual happening, when I’m looking at your photos, though.
Thank you so much for joining the challenge. You know you don’t need to, and that you have no time for that, so it makes it even more special!
I’m grateful for your ongoing support and friendship.

Well unfortunately, there’s altogether too much morbid occurring in life, so–we have to work with it, around it somehow.

It’s true that “anticipation” is always greater–whether of horrific imaginings or exquisite (in my own experience, I’m speaking).

Yes, you are so right, given what is happening in the world at the moment we are a hairs breadth from making the same mistakes again I fear…
