Angel Blessings
This lens was blessed on October 20, 2010. I wanted to thank the squid angel, Ladymermaid for her wonderful blessing. These angels work hard to see to it that wonderful lenses get blessed. I believe that they deserve recognition for their hard work. Thank you all Angels!

- My first sprinkling of angel dust on this ferret lens has long worn off so I am back once again to scatter a little more. It is my quest this week to re-bless some of the lenses which I blessed way back in 2010. Your lens is on this list.

- Love this lens! I have a ferret who is the dark eyed white. He wasn't pure white when we got him though. It's amazing how much they can change in color!
