Me too. The cellar dwellars didn't get the message 😿
For all that is bad, there is good. For that which is despair, there is hope. For the moments of pain,
There are moments of love. For all that falls, there is the chance to rise again.

@MAX & @TigerLily

The Chronicling America site at the Library of Congress wouldn't open any of their newspapers on Thursday night, and then my image hosting site wouldn't convert any of my pictures on Friday night, so I posted the quiz on Saturday, during daylight hours. (Normally I don't post quizzes on Saturday or Sunday.)  That's probably why you missed the quiz.

No problems Rikki. It is a pleasure to participate 😸
