I enjoyed your tender dream reverie, and like how everything flows from point to point.<br /><br />I also like the vivid colors and the perceptible weather. Sorry you are feeling colder, though. Perhaps you can be warmed knowing how much your readers appreciate you.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08839236994990699117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-87082745158332859672012-01-16T15:40:29.938-07:002012-01-16T15:40:29.938-07:00Britt, Yoli: So glad you liked it.

Always grateful to see you stopping for a moment on snowy evenings. Thx for the glimpse of the rainshadow desert, of what you smell in the coffee, what you see at the watering hole. And just cuz there's clearly something about oolong tea, i'll send you a song that might speak to you too. For now, all all I can think to offer in return for your many-layered images: (ps just realized it's lapsang souchong in the song. oh well! Still - great sound. enjoy. <br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xe3RqgnXaT4bbwnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-31672170965668646282012-01-13T08:06:42.743-07:002012-01-13T08:06:42.743-07:00Right now I'm feeling like Smaug; everytime I ...Right now I'm feeling like Smaug; everytime I turn around some little bastard is trying to get at my stuff...<br /><br />No big thing.FDChiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10607785969510234092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-1927762370239613292012-01-12T05:02:50.695-07:002012-01-12T05:02:50.695-07:00I see you're using the title of Bilbo Baggins&...I see you're using the title of Bilbo Baggins' epic tome of his adventures.<br /><br />Are you starting to get into the "can't wait for December to come round" feeling?<br /><br />BTW, weather here is great, and very easy on the gas bill.<br /><br />bbAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31246093.post-61331149845935820722012-01-11T16:15:08.548-07:002012-01-11T16:15:08.548-07:00Always a nice respite.Always a nice respite.srvnoreply@blogger.com
