wonderful things

next to the stent, this is the best thing this xmas --- over the years, i have been the lucky recipient of a series of excellent watercolors, like this one, as well as a variety of objects, including an image of rhodes hall done in scrimshaw on a 1" hexagonal porcelain tile, an image of the continents of the earth etched into the surface of a blue marble, and all sorts of other  wonderful things created by one of that handful of friends that support my life --- thank you, angela
