LOL Rex! I have to tell you why, when I opened it I saw Quiet Waters, and there was nothing else there. LOL I thought hmm....interesting.

Reading the replies, I was like I have to be missing something. LOL  Oh was I!

This was a treasure Rex! So true!

serenity ... thanks for the kind words ... I've been busy lately ... I was voted in as the new Vice President of the Forest City Pond Club ... not as much time on my hands as I used to have so ... I'll be posting a lot less often now.
I'll be at our London Aquaria Society Auction tomorrow in Dorchester ( any local poets looking for some bargains? )
  
Sheri ... Why? ... I guess it's progress and the almighty dollar that cares less for natural life ... many city kids grow without ever seeing mother nature ... we've done school tours of our ponds to help educate the kids and when seeing their responses ... believe me it's worth the effort
  
WhtDove ... I suppose it may be slow to load at times ... glad you liked it, thanks
  
Thanks Brian ... your reply means a lot to me
  
Denise ... thankyou very much
  
vicky ... glad you hung in there long enough to see it ... thanks
  
Thankyou Elizabeth ... this definately takes a while to produce ... But I wanted to use it on my home page anyway ... so I hit two birds with one throw
  
Melissa ... thanks ... good to hear from you

Oh, I've missed your style Rex! What a beautiful presentation to complement these equally beautiful sentiments. Enchanting!  

And congratulations on the appointment Rex, that's great! So you're going to be in Dorchester eh? Actually, is there a site on the internet where this local can got to, to see what it's all about? If so, let me know.

Best wishes,
/Kit

Mr. McCoy
  This was simply awesome. Short and Sweet.  The whole background scene was also excellent for your title and write.
