Brilliant. Such a fine ending. I will remind my son to open the windows at my demise. I appreciate your writing style, Justin. It is spare, clean, free of hyperbole. It reminds me of my own. Ha! Thank you. New subscriber, Sharron at LEAVES.

I don't throw compliments around when it comes to English. I was an English teacher for years, but I won't send corrections. I promise. Ha Ha Ha. Lovely fresh work.
