Hi Don,
I love what you have created here. I enjoyed visiting…
Best,

Thanks Jeff for checking it out! You’re very perceptive to figure out I had a blog from my email address
Dear Brother Don,
Thank you much for your Wyoming Landscape and remarks about artistic license. I needed to be reminded of that! Currently I am recovering from a trio of surgeries since June 19 and not able to do much – although I can again “work” my computer and read the Don West “Good Stuff”. I am going to get out my water color pencils and get busy on some “artistic license stuff”. Thanks for the reminder! May you enjoy much blessing out there in Colorado etc!

Hi Wil,
I hope you recovery from your surguries goes well. Glad you are feeling up to sketching and feel free to loosen up with artistic license. It’ll be good for you
