Ginger – Thanks for the note – Fog was enjoyable to do. I think it came out in 2000 as that is when it is dated. GRS

Arline – Anaheim was founded in 1857. My house was built in 1859. It’ probably the oldest inhabited house in town (the oldest house we know of is a museum). The city works hard to encourage the preservation of anything remotely historic. GRS

I think I first became aware of you and your talent when I saw “Fog” in Celebration one year. I’ve always loved the poem, and the rug definitely caught my eye. Thanks for the background info. Oh, yes—I’m glad your blog is getting back on track. I really missed my morning dose when you were having problems!

The area we live in now (our final retirement home) doesn’t have a historic building at all. V. Sharmay
