More to come, possibly including places you don't know. :-) Busy

I can only take such a vacation because I am retired. And because I
retired early, I can only afford it through the kindness of friends at
whose houses we are lucky enough to be invited to stay.

round of layoffs because my skills were a small, but unique cog in the
survival of the company at those times.

Sorry, I don't understand the question. What is "palming"? If you refer
to this image, it's a straight, uncropped shot of nature in Acadia with
only a little of my usual digital darkroom "improvement", but no tricks.
