Some reference to "Adam and Eve" and as I consider possible ramifications, I don't recall what the names given to the purported two initial individuals were in the Torah for Jews/Hebrewand Greek scriptures for Christians ... .. but whatever names they carry in English would have to be aliases, wouldn't you think?

I’ve posted this before. It’s our foyer floor, crafted by our builder out of walnut snd white oak.

This oval table made the rounds to three different homes. DD recently gave it away so it is in a fourth home.

Took this a couple years ago. It was snowing late at night and it looked like diamonds. This was in our driveway, zoom in, I hope you can see the sparkle.
