a basket of flowers

Friends brought this basket for Ray. The blue hyacinth in the centre will soon be fragrant.

In 7+ years of posting on 365 I've not missed a day. But now I am going to take a little break.

Thanks again for all the lovely and supportive messages. Ray is doing OK (as am I) but I just need a little breathing space.

Back soon..........

I finally arrive to look at your project, and read that you are taking what sounds like a very well earned break. Full of admiration of you for keeping going for so many years without a break. That is one fine achievement.
