    Hi, Kevin! I always look forward to a new video from you! They check so many boxes for me! Gardening is my first passion, but not far behind are watching the ships on the Great Lakes, photography, and the oh so beautiful music you entwine in the gorgeous scenery! All these feed my soul. You've done it again! (The purple flower looks like Geramium "Rozanne")

    Thank you.. This years Autumn was beyond amazing for Michigan and Wisconsin it looks like! I really enjoy doing photoshoots with barns. I don't get to do it often, but when i can, I sure take the opportunity. I hope surgery goes well for you and you recover smoothly and quickly. Glad to see Coleen is doing great! Two years already is crazy... time goes by way to quickly. Can't wait to see your winter layup videos. Always something to look forward to!

    Hi Kevin, Wishing you all the best for a successful surgery and a smooth recovery. I really enjoyed the podcast, especially your essay about Disappearing Door. We purchased the print simply because we loved it, but your essay has given us a much deeper appreciation of its meaning. Thanks for the video, look forward to the next one!
