A friend of mine has a set I've always admired.<br /><br />In the quiet of the evening makes me think of a song -- perhaps a Stephen Foster ditty. Or from a poem -- and now I'm thinking T.S. Eliot. Good grief -- could there be two more different sources? Hmmm - may have to ask Mr, Google.<br /><br />It's been a long long time -- thirty five years -- but I too loved Sesame Street -- especially The Count.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-31349289718257350192009-06-16T16:48:26.435-04:002009-06-16T16:48:26.435-04:00Wonderful stroll!

Computers are a blessing and curse I think. I love them, and the worlds they open, but when they malfunction it can sure raise the old blood pressure. Glad yours decided to 'fix itself'.<br />TammyTammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131066591477169851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-17427915103339576812009-06-14T13:18:02.385-04:002009-06-14T13:18:02.385-04:00Hey, Pat -- I count on that 'wait and see if i...Hey, Pat -- I count on that 'wait and see if it doesn't get better' effect all the time. Amd it works, more often than not.<br /><br />Carol -- Yeah, boy, getting outside can be magical!<br /><br />Look forward to seeing you in Waynesville, Kathryn!<br /><br />Thank you, Miss Yves -- high praise from such a photographer as yourself!<br /><br />Hey Liz- I understand your doctor friend's feelings but I've come to terms with the fact that I can love using my computer while understanding almost nothing about how it works -- and also that it will sooner or later break my heart by crashing.
