Asking for help - that I won't need - but I want to be responsible

[Mira]

I would love to enter a photo in the contest, which, looking at what has been entered already, and anticipating what's still to come, I don't stand a chance of winning.

I will be away from the computer for about a month, starting the last week of August, and can't run the September contest in case of the unlikely win. As I said, I want to be responsible, so I'm asking for someone to be on standby to run it for me and in return I'll run it for that person when he/she needs for me to do it.

Thank you so much Speck Tater. I'll remember this and will be of help to you!

5. No problem. I need to be out of town in October...

...so maybe the need will arise for me as well.

6. One hand washes the other.

I love it, and thanks again. I'm here for all of October.
Your entry in this contest is very arresting, and beautiful. I think it will be popular.
I have not yet chosen my own.

9. Thank you as well!

Hope your legs are healing up, I don't suppose you are wearing shorts at the moment. Tough when you are in NOLA in August.
The photo proves the old saying that "new life blossoms on top of the ruins" as Schiller said in a poem.

Now I have to go look it up - this came back from the deep recesses of childhood momories.
