A Special Friend is Gone

This morning I received the call that my friend Paul had passed.  We met soon after I arrived in Seattle and were instantly connected because of our New England roots.  I'm feeling a tremendous loss but also relief that his pain and suffering has ended.

He enjoyed the simple pleasure of  a "pretty day" (his words) so I decided to honor that by taking some pictures around my yard. The cold snap last night coated many things with a beautiful layer of frost.  The sun came out and made things that much prettier.

Rest in peace my friend.
