A Drive in the Country
Daughter Ivi and I seek out some back roads and find cows.
Sunday Driving

Mission Aborted
I try to exercise the Blue Rascal no less than weekly, weather permitting. With most of the main streets now clear of the considerable snow of the past week, Ivi and I set off for a local photographic junket. But … Continue reading
