I later kicked myself. When I saw this one I had to have it. I likely over paid but I am very pleased to have it nonetheless. I think it is an attractive image that seems to tell a story. This picture is my first pick up since undergoing surgery three weeks ago. It’s funny how purchasing it makes my world feel as if it is starting to return to normal. This hobby may be hell on my wallet but is certainly good for my soul.
