I enjoy your Sunspots, I almost always learn something interesting!
I like your new header, very beautiful! You commented on mine, and I don't remember if I ever answered. It's a park in Fairhope, Alabama, a town near us. The foreground is a duckpond, and Mobile Bay is in the distance.
Yours, Nancy
