So sorry, my friends, to be so late in replying to your generosity and thank you for the acorns, thumbs, and comments. We were traveling last week back to Florida and have had company here. We also had to put our van into the shop for repairs. When we were going back to Arkansas last month, unfortunately, I hit a deer, and did quite a bit of damage to the front of the car. Thankfully, we were both okay, but I was pretty shaken up so didn't drive any more on that trip. Also for Mika, the complete photo.

Thanks, Jean, for the complete photo; I love the interesting combination of the blue plumbago and the rich purple. I tip my hat to you.

Great photo, Jean. Sorry about the deer, I always worry about that, we were just up in West Virginia mountains and so many ran across in front of us, so many are hit up there. Glad you're okay.

Thank you Sherri. We have traveled many miles over the years and in many rural areas as well as in Hot Springs Village, AR, where we have a home and never even a close call. This was just one of those unfortunate things that happen and surprisingly, when you mention it, many people have hit them in the past.
