Congratulations on your 3rd place win with this very vivid imagery, Andrea – I could not get the sight of it out of my mind for a while and had a good chuckle. :)

Dear Andrea, what a delightful read and brought a huge smile to my face. I loved that it was a deeper commentary on the nature of observation and the unexpected moments of humor found in life. - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
