Out Of The Darkness - Again!

Whooo Wee! Is it ever GOOD to be back! It has been one heck of a wild ride: hand surgery, complications arose, (back to the hospital), Storm Alfred and a 9 day power outage......and more. BUT, my hand is now healing well, stiches came out yesterday, all my fingers move, but don't quite yet work, pain is minimal, I'm managing quite well, and Elsie was a real trooper too. I'll be posting (hopefully) with some regularity, though at a diiferent time, and I'm sorry that commenting will likely be minimal. I can hardly WAIT to see what you've all been up! Many thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers............Les

@netkonnexion Hello Damon, and thank you ever so much for checking in on me awhile back. It was so very thoughtful, and a great cheer up.
(Say, did you ever see the posting I made for you over the summer?? Probably not since I posted it on the wrong date. Well, I enjoyed your steam engine series so much, that I made a special posting for you. You'll find it in my album "What Have You" on August 5th. :-D)
See you around, Les
