And…

Received this envelope today with no return address but a cedar rapids postmark. That's one of my address labels so it must be someone I've sent mail to.

Sometimes you have make sacrifices. So Linda has sent me many many things since I departed for California and now upon my return. We'll start with these very cool collages and ATCS that give you a…
