I think the picture works on ones mind, each in a different way giving each of us different messages. I tried to write his message for me. <br />Tidbits. I wrote this bedside watching pictures, thoughts, and updates from France. My iPad is course, I may smooth things in the morning. We'd been out, it was almost one when I started but I posts dated back to last night, Friday. <br />Thank you, I promise to read up on Millais Sunday. <br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542041444980449672.post-44435043679645001622015-11-13T14:50:39.415-06:002015-11-13T14:50:39.415-06:00Thank you, Susie!Thank you, Susie!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10124956200834969600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542041444980449672.post-85175482436873790532015-11-13T11:12:38.786-06:002015-11-13T11:12:38.786-06:00I love this challenge, Susie.
