Kind Words from a Good Friend

                     (My good friend Joyce, has been reading my blog since I began this effort in    

                 2010. I asked her if she would write what she enjoys about my blog and to     

                 pick a few favorite images. Below find her thoughts which I am honored to 

                share with you.)

                      "Curb Appeal in Sleepy Hollow" is a rich story of family life that I have

                      followed from its beginning in January of 2010. I love seeing Dorothy's fine,

                      professional photographs and the stories that accompany them. I am an avid 

                      follower because I know I'll be refreshed by the sense of well-being that 

                      accompanies each entry.

                   

                   Through the seasons, comings and goings, ups and downs, and many excursions

                   Dorothy's internal gyroscope returns the world and her active household of 5 to

                   its rightful place in a few carefully crafted paragraphs.

               

                     The quality of this blog reminds me of why I read The New Yorker. It often 

                     reveals interesting topics and is always dependably executed. Talent to

                     achieve these ends is a given, but being dependable through almost 350

                     entries is truly rare.

                     There are many who consider creating a record of their lives, and there 

                     are a few who actually try. But very, very few who deliver a record as

                     potent as this one. Brava, Dorothy.
