		shakeh	Happy Springtime to you also! Great work and interesting meaningful subject behind the words.
		artpaws	This is marvelous . . . love the words too. My stepdad really appreciated hearing your feedback (via me) on his guitar work - he is still working on more recording for youtube. I haven't been getting around again - more PC issues and health (mostly Ed. Getting older is such a bore!) And PC technology - phee-yeeww - most of our problems were caused by "protective" programs that protected all too well - to the point of ddmaaging key files on one hard drive. ugh! Istill ahve been unable toi recover all my pictures (including many of yours that I either saved or yous ent me throught the years - the windows program that allowed me access to them was corrupted and the new install does not allow me access as they were pasword protected - argh! Includes my classic "separated at birth" vignette I did for you a coupla years back! I bet your are so looking forward to the clock ticking down on this year, yes? What will happen to your VT home when you relocate to western Mass?
