The snow is all gone, but I am still here.I am similar to the river we live on: sometimes I disappear around a bend, or behind a stand of trees, or under white blocks of snow covered ice ... but I am still here, flowing along and being me.My apologies to my readers who have been here looking for a new post, some photographs, and perhaps a bit of inspiration ... or a knitting pattern or two. I appear to have taken the winter off from writing, although I did not set out to do so.I have been quite busy with family life, enjoying my little granddaughter, and painting in preparation for my art show, which will be opening in June. Give me a couple of days, and I will post a blog ... the first of many for this somewhat old new year.~firefly
