I really did not expect that this humble project would be appreciated that much and that it would resonate with many others at all. That adds quite a lot to the treasure this book has been for me.

- This is a joy in every way, I love the idea of a nature diary sketchbook and of course you have taken it beyond wonderful as you include the story behind each picture next to it, inviting all on your experience. Sadly, some of your images are missing today from November 2010 down, hopefully they'll come right back when you save the modules again. Savor-ingly blessed!

- I so admire your ability to sketch from nature in all types of weather. Truly you have the love of nature and art captured so well in this journal of beautifully artistic pictures and words. You capture the atmosphere for the rest of us to appreciate ... the colors, sounds and nature of each season remind me of Thoreau's time at Walden.

- This is great! I am a big fan of Plein Air! You are quite an artist. My mother, who was an art teacher, was very "tight" in her paintings. I remember once when she was in college, that her art instructor took her watercolor and ran it under the water in the sink to loosen it up. Squid Angel blessed!

I have always been fascinated by colour and enjoyed the variety you captured between your pages (40 shades of green in May!). Leaving an *~*~ Angel Blessing ~*~* for this unique work of art, which has been so lovingly presented here for us.
