I've missed you guys and gals

I don't even remember the last time I was here. I've had two strokes, my dad died. my husband was diagnosed with parkinsons. We sold our house - not that I wanted to but the drive to the city was too much for my husband and me. I finally started driving again. I did so much therapy and am no longer in a wheelchair. I can walk unaided-----HALLELUJAH. I've been on a couple of photoshoots. I missed photography so much. But while I was recuperating I took numerous online photography classes.I've missed you all and am happy to see familiar names.

If this isn't an appropriate place for this post please let me know and I'll remove it.

There is a lot of affection here making this a healing place and making pictures is good therapy.

hippies now live in a senior citizen's community. And the state of Virginia decriminalized pot---with a goal to legalize it.
