    At last, the inspiration doors are “open.” There’s a wonderful number of choices. A few of them are already tickling at the part of my brain where the untold stories live. I gather there will be a few more added (from Kerfe’s comment) and I say the more the merrier. Thanks to everyone who sent images! Hugs.

    Just popping by for a catch up, Dan. I’ve got all the sewing and pics done, and am finally starting my post.

    I can’t be normal, so am combing 4 doors into 1 post. I just love a good extravaganza. I’ll have it posted in the nick of time! LOL. I think I’ll do this one on Art Gowns.

    Also, sometimes in early (ish) June, I’ll do a thank you post with reblogs to all the people/posts that used my pics. & a big thank you to you!

      That’s great news, Resa! You have plenty of time left. I can’t wait to see this.

      You doors have been popular. They inspired quite a few stories and poems.

    Umm, you might have the wrong door in the grid for “Payback”?

    You had a successful and enthusiastic participation this year, Dan! All the contributing doors are wonderful and inspirational! Thank you for hosting this annual challenge. I must be anxious about my upcoming trip. It’s Wednesday today and I was mistaken it as Thursday and was going to pick up my younger granddaughter to take her to her dance class. But I realized it was a wrong date as soon as I backed out the car from the garage. It never happened to me like this before.
