BTW - this comes during a really busy week at work - by then end of tomorrow I'll have about 20 hours of overtime! Great for the paycheck...not much good for "peaceful, soothing anythings" :-) Thanks again for this post.

Lynda it’s a wonderful set and I must agree with Patty. The whole story and all of your pictures touched me and my soul. And fascinated me how you could play with shadows in your photos. Great job!

That people stop to see and experience this beauty shows me that Thoreau's philosophy is alive today. As always - you've perfectly illustrated his words!
