It is hard to believe, with the temperature tonight going down to -24C (with the windchill of -34C), that we are halfway to spring.  How do I know this? The groundhog had its day today, and predicted 6 more weeks of winter. And if groundhogs don't do it for you, ...

(NOTE: This ArtWork was created in 2006. In my journal, I wrote down my thoughts when I created this piece.  It wasn't until today, when I posted it on my webpage, that I completed this ArtWork & Words. The following Words are based on what I wrote so many year...

Below is what I wrote about this piece, that was created in January 2007. 

The other day, I picked up a book called Other People’s Love Letters.  The editor, Bill Shapiro of LIFE magazine, searched and edited this book into existence.  Reading other people’s love...
