But thank goodness I can enjoy things through the posts of blogging friends who visit and post about places I can no longer navigate well, or who create beautiful crafted items that I dreamed of making even before my stroke but never actually developed the necessary skills.LChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08369350929348290480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-909082640346689518.post-60809469924952142392021-05-06T14:54:34.429-05:002021-05-06T14:54:34.429-05:00I was amazed at that too.

"Old-fashioned tech" is perfect! If I do another post on the model trains, I won't be able to resist stealing your on-the-money phrase!
