CLIFF: A picture like that is certainly worth much more thah a thousand words ... it says things words can't. Thank you ... I'm especially glad you chose a Rose, and a RED one at that as red roses have special meaning for me ... they remind me of my Mom, whose name was Rose (I called her "Rosie" until I was 15 and in a foster home and thought, well, you're my MOM and the only one I got, so from this day forth you shall be called Mom by me

... the rest is history) ... your images are beautiful ... I'll bet people pay to hang them in their homes and businesses. Images ... create moods ... when the moods are positive, that sells 'em
That's a wicked looking image and I love it!
GARRY: And I'd lay a big hug back ... you and your Shadster have given me more smiles and boosts than you can ever know ... Geoff is huggable/hugger too

and never takes it the wrong way ... or gives it the wrong way
The only cure for disillusionment is to find new attaintable hopes in other directions

At least that's the only one I know of
Cast your eye round you, ya never know what ya might spot
