We went over to the Turning Stone, yesterday afternoon, to a book signing by our friend Tony Wonderley. No: we didn't stay to play! But a few nice country scenes came in view .............

I had an E-note, yesterday, from a reader who suddenly is unable to "open" the blog. I had changed the format a few days ago --- perhaps that is the problem. If any of you who can read this know of other instances like hers, please let me know: I'll try to fix things!
Thank You!
