We are the ones who should be thanking YOU! Everyone always enjoys your work - keep it coming! BTW is that you who captured the Norman Rockwell moment at the top of the essay?

Dearest Bob, I hope you enjoyed a peaceful Christmas with your family, reflecting on all the sweet memories past. I know you take reverence in our Lord and trust in Him for everything. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, inspiration and support this year. And for this comment! I captured that shot on a drive in back-country Oregon, on the first anniversary of dad’s passing. He passed New Years Day 2021 and a fresh snow arrived a year later. It had been years since Sublimity had snow and it was as if God was making everything new for us. There is nothing like the Christmas tree farms on the drive from Sublimity to Silverton! Thankfully I took a kit with me, with a long lens, and shot this from the van :)

Looking forward to what the new year will bring for both of us!! oxox
