May the turning of the year offer time for reflection, and the opportunity for better things for all in 2026.

“I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.

‘We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September’,
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December”

Sad news to hear that Dorothy Vogel has passed away - such an inspirational woman who, together with her husband Herb amassed an incredible art collection (for the right reasons).

“Herb and Dorothy” is well worth watching (also the follow-up, “Herb and Dorothy 50x50”)
