Dog ownership is like a rainbow.
 Puppies are the joy at one end.
 Old dogs are the treasure at the other.

Hello everyone.  I wanted to write and tell you that about a year ago I was
reading somewhere that there is a blind artist in Florida who does paint for
an art gallery.  If I remember the story she was trying to figure out a way
to paint using oils because I guess buyers like those more.
