I guess that is the gateway between our world and the Land of Dreams?<br /><br />Great post!<br /><br />TimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2589165667013235064.post-58610527671953722242014-07-02T19:15:08.585-04:002014-07-02T19:15:08.585-04:00I recently discovered this image as well.
