    Thank you, Yvette ... and the same to you!
    Love the picture; those old illustrators were amazing, weren't they?

      Thanks, tinpot. Yes, they were. Most especially Leyendecker, poor soul. Well, he had his many moments in the sun.

    Same to you, Yvette. A happy new year and a healthy one to you and yours - if it is healthy, it is far more likely to be happy. Oh, and I wish you lots of good books, too.

      Thanks, Les. Health. SO important - especially as we grow older. At least I didn't get the flu at Christmas. Ha. I think 2015 is going to be a great year - unless I jinx it by saying so. :)

    We didn't get much in the way of a real n'oreaster, not like you guys did. So we dodged a bullet. I'm happy and cozy at home and I hope you are too. Snug as a bug in a rug. :)
