norm, Howdy;
You sir will be missed. Your daily offerings to us have us held in a wordless
state of awe.
Hopefully it's a simple matter of re-stocking supplies and not something
more serious. If the later, then best wishes for a positive completion. No
elaboration necessary. Best wishes through the Holidays. Look forward to
your return whenever that may be.

I know the feeling, Norm. Vickie's birthday is the 1st and our anniversary is the 7th. Tough month for me too.
Have a good break, take care of yourself.

Norm, I'm sorry to hear of your dad passing away. I know the feeling.
Let me just say that you have been a very big inspiration to me and someday I hope my winged flies look almost as good as yours.
It's not going to seem right getting on the forum and not seeing a new masterpiece that you share with us daily.
Take care. Like all the others here, I wish you the very best and am already anxious for your return.

The fly does sort of resemble Alfalfa.
