March 13 to 31, 2013

This is the first time in over three years that I have taken a break from posting a daily photo
I have to tell you that it will also be the last time!  Catching up is a mammoth task!
It has been a struggle to try and upload the photos in the order that I want them.
The photos appear in random order and will therefore not be dated.
 (a few worthy archive photos are included)
