Soy Anara
Later this morning, we leave for a week away. When we come back from the west-est we've ever been, there will be the mountain of mail to sort and bills to pay. There will be emails to respond to and company coming in several waves. Also, I'll have over 100 essays to score (more about that later), my laptop will (theoretically) arrive; the garden will need planting (late but better than never) and the grass will be knee high. I'll be pushing a deadline for the next newspaper column and of course will want to spend a couple of days going over the pictures and journal notes from the trip to Vancouver. Will I ever find my way back to the Lost Blog?
But not to panic. It might be possible to use my son's laptop and blog from the road a time or two before we get back. But this feels like adios. Will the last Fragments reader kindly turn out the lights?
Meanwhile, you might browse the image galleries. There have been additions to several of them since the last time you wandered over there. You can start with the larger image of the Fire Pink that I took yesterday afternoon, then click through as many images or galleries as you have time for. I feel sure a Vancouver Gallery will go up as I can get to it upon our return. Or you can be more passive and watch the Flickr Slide Show of smaller images recently uploaded there. And thanks, Ian, I'm enjoying my Pro account!
Do email or comment if so inclined. I'll check in from time to time to be sure you're not squabbling among yourselves. Don't make me stop this blog and come back there!

Nice shot of the Fire Pinks. That red is a difficult one to photograph. Have fun away..but I know you..it will be too hard to stay away from us for long.

Have a great time in Vancouver (I'm assuming it's Vancouver BC and not WA?). Make sure you go to Cafe Crepe on Robson and have an orangina and a banana-nutella crepe...

I've enjoy dropping in from time to time and I love your photos. Everyone can't do everything forever, though. Have a good summer!

Fred, this is so weird. I thought I had clicked on for Doug's blog and then just started up reading. I didn't know Doug was going away? He's getting a new lap top too? Well yes, he does write a Floyd Press column (sort of) and take pictures. It wasn't till I read the part about Vancouver that I realized I was at Fragments and got a good laugh to myself. We'll all miss you.
