Dear Readers,

Sorry to be away from the keyboard for so long. I've been doing taxes and other "fun" stuff. Actually some has been fun. My darling wife and I have been working in our garden. We've planted potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, made two new raised beds, and added wood chips to the paths to keep weeds down. I still have a lot to do in my garden, but more importantly, I've been painting. I've got several paintings finished and I need to photograph them and share them with you.

Thanks for reading! I like conversations, so feel free to ask questions or make comments.

Thanks!
Donald
