2. Thanks, Solly Mack!

Things are going pretty well. My wife spent the weekend in San Diego with daughter and son-in-law, and we are encouraged by his progress in recovery. I'm going back down at the end of the month. Hope you are well.

3. That is wonderful news! Keep us posted. You're dear to us.

I'm my usual dysfunctional self.

5. Wow, my dear Adsos Letter!

These are stunning, wonderful photos!

I love the texture and the color. And how close you got as well.

6. Thanks, California Peggy.

I bought a set of extension tubes. These were taken with a Nikkor 85mm + 36mm extension. I can see that it will take some practice to get the aperture and focus correct. I think I'm also going to have to go to a tripod and remote as my hands shake too much for sharp images with this setup.

Just wanted to post something that didn't require going further than the front porch.

7. Beautiful....Actually saw something unique - hydranga buds surrounded by

flowers around the perimeter.

8. Thanks

Not sure the variety of hydrangea we have here. The blossoms start green but turn this purpley/magenta color; or blue, when I remember to put aluminum powder in the soil in the Fall.
