    Y-a-t-il vraiment un gagnant et un perdant dans ce genre de partie?.. :o)
    Vu à la tv que le nord-est des USA était sous la neige, j'espère que tout va bien. Take a good care of you!

    My, what a tender moment ... I love puddle reflections. This is classic ... you should be sure to save this one for when you publish your "Reflections" book, right? Happy New Year to you too, James ...
