Uncovering Old Friends

This is a repeat of a post I did a few years back. Since we’ve had so much rain lately, with the promise of more, and since delving through old pictures is a perfect rainy day pasttime, I reprint it here and hope you enjoy looking back with me.   Rain falls this morning, pattering […]
