Well...here is a close up. The sun poured its rays over me and kept me warm for most of the day.  Good thing because it was cold out there.  I do not know if you can see but my inventory is pretty slim.  I have had a hard time with the creative process these days.

Endymion will be uptown this year.  Yay!  Have a great weekend. Kalaya
