The Orange Trumpet Vine was the 2nd image I posted when I began Photo-A Day.

On Wednesday I will have completed two years & due to an unexpected work load for the following three months I think the time has come for me to end the commitment I have tried to maintain while taking part in this fantastic PAD journey. I have met some amazing people & had unbelievable
support & as a result I wont be leaving entirely, but like several others it will be a PESO or similar gallery I try to do.

Big, big, thanks to you all ( you know who you are !! )

I am writing this now as tomorrow will be out of the question !!

Canon EOS 350D

Stunningly beautiful. V

Laine - you are one of the most dedicated users on PBASE, and the site will definately not be the same with you posting and commenting less often - but you've got to do what you've got to do. And by the way, two years of PAD is definately 1 more than I will achieve - congratulations on your achievement!

Thank YOU Laine for your unwavering support, humor, good old fashinioned fun you've shared with so many of us. More than anything, you've really eptomized the concept of global neighbors and friends. Post when you can, ypu've certainly got a stockpile sitting in your computer. This is a beautiful shot to leave us with. Take care, my friend.

petesie		29-May-2006 12:04
I didn't quite make the two years....congratulations on your accomplishment. On June 10, 2004, my first day of PaD our relationship began. You were my second comment and you have helped me grow and encouraged me every step along the way and I am forever grateful. I'm so glad you will continue but enjoy a rest. (Robin is right about the addiction, of course.) Thanks for every wonderful, creative image.

Di		29-May-2006 11:53
