Aw, thanks so much, Kim. If you live in a place where Jack Frost visits your windows, you will see it soon!

This is a super haiku, Milt. It really resonates. (Brrr). I just would like to ask whoever taught Nature to sketch to please now give her the Lesson Spring!! Here comes Old Man Winter, I guess. :)

I figured that would resonate with you, Caren, since you have probably had a sketching pad forever and ever.

I don't recall that, but I do recall using our warm breath to execute drawings in the frost on the outside.
