  3. That's what I like about blogging, Deanna: I have "entered" them here! That takes care of my desire to share.

  4. Wow, you capture the beauty of the city, its lines and angles, so well. The beautiful copper roof of the courthouse! YOu make me so happy I'll be there in just a couple of weeks...
