I wake up every day, grateful that I live in such beautiful country. I'm glad you enjoy these photos.<br /><br />And, the black paper is really, really easy to make - it's just mixing up some grit with paint plus water, and just making sure the surface is evenly painted. I probably detailed it out more than was necessary, but that was a necessity in my previous life [as a physician], and old habits die hard, I guess :).Sonya Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01879889885162011649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3640331618261060721.post-24677349229195208622010-10-20T00:06:58.338-04:002010-10-20T00:06:58.338-04:00More great views!
