Want to do something fascinating?  Go to Wikipedia and type in any year, past, present, or future.  B.C. or A.D.  I just checked out 1918


  Go to 1561 and  check out April 14th...what do you think about that one?

Check out 2030 or other future years...fascinating!

Koi and The Cherry Tree

28" Stained Glass Mosaic Window by Victor Nunnally 2015

Thank you Karen, it fits perfect there and the light is just right.  I bet it radiates in the morning sun.  Perfect timing with the cherry blossoms in DC.  
If you get a chance click on "A Fun Slide Show"at the top of the right column.  I made that years ago and came across it while looking at my blog's archives.  I need to make another updated one.  But this one is special and sad at the same time for me.
