Well, I finally gleaned a few from my miserable '22 collection and sent 
them off: my soul feels shriven.

I am definitely going to be using a '23 Yearbook folder and populating 
it with two appropriately sized images each month, just so I don't have 
to scrabble through a lot of images next February.

How come I always say that???

Just recovering from an awful dose of the Norovirus now. Since I got 
CoVid in 2020, I seem to be easy meat for any random bug. The gods seem 
to be conspiring to stop my photography. Maybe they're trying to give me 
a hint.
