heat pump
|
|
2024-02-21 This is epic in more ways than one, from the descriptive phrases, the way it shifts from what you see, what you feel, to thoughts of Lynn, to the intensity of your writing and the thanks for the day, one to store in the memory bank and I won't forget, the heat pump, which I guess started the whole process.
