Thanks, Ann! 😊

The image shows a yellow house wall with a window on the left side and a classic street lamp on the right. The sun is low, casting a sharp shadow of the street lamp onto the wall. The lower part of the wall features red bricks. The scene is bathed in warm, golden sunlight, creating long shadows and a calm atmosphere.

Absolutely stunning!

It’s a long shot but I plan on reaching out to my senators today. We can hold on to hope!

This photos depicts a park bench in a wooded area situated under a flowering redbud tree & next a walking path. The underbrush is full of lush greenery & purple, yellow, & white spring blooms.

With all of the scary stuff going on, I sure could use a sit in this spot & forget about it all for a while.
