PERSONAL NOTE:  It seems I have been mostly absent from WordPress since late July.  Husband and I got COVID, thankfully it was mild, and then Husband experienced a medical emergency that involved two hospitalizations, blood clots and a fractured ankle.  He is home now and recuperating well.  I venture back into the blogging world with this Friday Foto and look forward to visiting my blogging friends again.  TGIF!
