A little something to celebrate “Angels” being a year old.
As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, Inspirations and Interesting Tidbits, a great deal of inspiration for the land around Ashwood town came from my own memories. I grew up walking down sandy roads and exploring the woods around where I lived, usually on horseback. A lot of those places are long gone …
AI… you hear about it everywhere nowadays. For some, it invokes some pretty strong feelings.
