A friend challenged me to do one “big” thing a day.  Getting up or showering won’t count!  This idea will guide my blog.

Today I spent all morning scanning photos and preparing a poem-like reminiscence for a friend who will have a significant birthday soon.  I’ve known him since we were at university a long time ago. 

His wife called last week to say she’s preparing a friendship book for his birthday and wants letters and pictures.  I have the yearbook from that year, so I scanned the pages with his and my very young pictures, then scanned a more recent school-teacher photo of me.  When I finished, I printed the photos on glossy paper and my “poem” on parchment.  I mailed it today as directed and now anticipate hearing his reaction.
