Welcome to www.thekaleidoscope.com!

After having surgery to remove a cancer infected vertebrae in her neck, Lyn Votour
(the owner of The Kaleidoscope Journal) suffered a major stroke almost two years ago.

After six months of hospitalization, Lyn returned home last summer.  She no longer
has the use of her left leg and arm due to the stroke, and the surgeries have degraded
her abilities to speak and swallow. She continues to recover from the stroke, and
wants everyone who has sent her prayers, cards and emails of support and strength
to know how much she appreciates them.

You can read more about this at www.caringbridge.com/visit/lynvotour.

Lyn and her husband, Gary, regret that they will no longer be able to publish
The Kaleidoscope Journal any longer.

As the Crow Flies, the store operated by the Votour's in the barn next to their home,
is no longer open. They have plans to reopen as an artists' studio in Spring of 2008.

The Central Mass Fresh web site is no longer available. Origonally funded by a state grant.
the ongoing cost of hosting and updates has been provided by Gary Votour for four years.
He no longer has the time or interest in doing so any longer, and the domain name has been
offered to a local farmer for use.

Ocean Oracle is no longer hosted here. Please go to www.oceanoracle.com.
