And that you were visited by my line, "tasks folding into tasks," as it related to your family and loved ones moving into their own lives, and your challenge to communicate with them.<br /><br />A line in a poem can have a broad meaning. I too find -- particularly right now, in this holiday season -- my thoughts going to the passage of time and the unfolding of generations. These can be particularly poignant when the season brings us to reflection. <br /><br />Your kind wishes are happily received. Yes, these are good times with great meaning. Wishing you and yours an abundance of treasured moments,<br /><br />Anitraanitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17042584896640034932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-22221870637605577502015-12-24T19:07:26.163-08:002015-12-24T19:07:26.163-08:00Anitra, your line, "tasks folding into tasks&...Anitra, your line, "tasks folding into tasks", returned me here tonight. I have thoughts of my loved ones, grown children living where their love and work took them, and the manifold task of communicating with them all. I delight in an efficient postal system and long-distance communications. These are good times. My best wishes to you and yours in this and all seasons.

As always, your images are stunning and your words are very inspiring. It makes me wonder about my retirement someday and how I need a break from the busy metropolitan city of Los Angeles. So much to explore, but so little time it seems when the calling of showbiz keeps me going.<br /><br />My wife and I send you and your loved ones best wishes for the entire holiday season!

In this post you captured many different aspects of that. The water looks so serine, not even a ripple.That sly fox to the vintage turquoise car. That fox though does bring back memories of a particular game of golf I played at Bethpage here on Long Island. In the middle of walking the fairway, 2 beautiful foxes, Mr and Mrs no less, ran side by side across the fairway and into the woods as if the dinner bell rang and they were alerted to come. <br /><br />On another note, that photo in the side bar came out so nice but then again you have never taken a bad picture I'm sure. Real classic beauty and elegance! <br /><br />Wishing you, Erin and family a happy Thanksgiving filled with plenty of joy,peace, not too many chores, tasks, tangles and knots. And of course plenty of light! <br /><br />Best always to you.......<br /><br />Jonathan <br /><br />Jonathan Chesternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-39754645246953271092015-11-24T07:23:05.635-08:002015-11-24T07:23:05.635-08:00Joseph,

Sunday morning is indeed the most perfect morning of the week. I've spent so many Sunday mornings enjoying the simplicity of a cup of coffee while listening to soft music or reading the newspaper. <br /><br />It's hard to believe that 2015 is already racing to a close. I think this year has gone faster than any other that I can remember. May your holiday season be merry, bountiful, and bright, and may the new year bring you endless blessings. <br /><br />Best wishes and fondest regards,<br /><br />JosephJoseph Hechtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-19810642164096538842015-11-23T21:36:46.982-08:002015-11-23T21:36:46.982-08:00Geo,
