Greetings to all near and far. Autumn is definitely here and those drives out and about in the countryside will soon be showing us vivid and spectacular colors. Nature is ready for a change of wardrobe. Be sure and treat yourself to some free time to relax and enjoy the beauty of Nature.

My latest article is about the lovely Fraktur art work of the Pennsylvania Dutch.
