hi just saw yr message of 5 months ago ... 6 months ago was hit by a car while i was bicycling to teach haiku at venice buddhist temple and recovery has been slow ... have been hosting haiku corner for community.tricycle.com ... next time yr in the 'hood, stop by !

aahhh..... a voice from the east. In New England two weeks ago my body asked me,'What are you doing in the high desert? come back. These mountain ridges drifted apart from the west edge of europe are what you most know. Why go away?' I read 'Laura' and something in me spells it n o s t a l g i a. Next time I'll ask before I turn someone into a symbol. (hoping you're well too)

Thanks Laura - I've got a Fuji FinePix A825 - have recently started using Picasa 3 to edit - it's great, I sit for hours "playing" with colour, light and shade!

Hi Laura, I love photography too and like making new connections - I'm learning something new each day!

Laura, What's the apple festival?

I am so glad that you are getting to know my friend, Sandi. She is one heck of a cool lady!

Hi Laura, Hope you're doing O.K. I went right from one class into another, so I've been super busy. Busy in a good way. Now that the weather's getting way colder, I hope to do some catching up here soon. Take care foe now, Catherine (Otter)
