Chronicles of the Dragon Cave from A to Z: "Z" is for Zenon's Souvenir Shop

    The tour has come to an end and there is nothing left for me to say but  thank you for coming to the Dragon Cave. I have no book or Amazon Card to thank you with for your company so I assigned Zenon, father of Tassin, to make some postcards for you.
    Zenon is the oldest dwarf in my staff. He didn't go with the others on the Ninja job because his sight is not good and Dragon Ancestors help his hearing. Don't strain yourselves trying to talk to him. As you will notice, he is not any Rembrandt but let's not kill the old dwarf's artistic spirit, shall we?








I know Zenon's postcards won't make it to your fridge door so allow me to thank you all for reading. May the Higher Powers shine their light upon you.  A special thanks to the following people for taking the whole tour (or nearly).

Now if you excuse me, I'll enter hibernation mode for a short while. Nothing extreme, just one or two centuriesszzzZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZZ...

    I think he did a fine job with the postcards!
    The tour has been awesome - great theme for the Challenge, Al.
    After tomorrow's IWSG, I plan on taking a snooze as well.

    Enjoy your well deserved rest. I don't get one as I shall continue blogging every day but Sunday. Thanks for the shout out Al. Enjoyed my tour of the dragon cave and I do hope the dwarves aren't too tired when they return.

    Those are lovely postcards. :) Maybe Zenon can't see very well because his eyebrows block his eyes.
    It's been a great time visiting with you here in the cave - which is a bit more crowded now with 600 dwarves! Hope you find the clones a home quickly. :)

    I totally think the dragon friendly post card needs a spot on my fridge!

    Awesome of you to give those loyal visitors a shout out. That took some awesome dedication on their parts!

    I don't have a fridge that will accommodate all of those lovely post cards, but I do have a wall by my computer where art comes and goes to inspire me as I need inspiration--that would be only all the time. :-)

    Thank you for the shout out in your last post of this Challenge. That was such wonderful way to say goodbye to this 2013 event. I've loved my visits to your rare and magical Dragon Cave and Mother Dragon's Garden and the amazing Dwarf Cheerleader Day. All exciting. All motivating. And without which I might not have slogged through the alphabet.

    Hasta la vista.

    Al, its been a pleasure following your A-Z posts. I truly hope you get some well deserved ZzzZzzz's in there... especially since Alex spoiled all your dwarves (plus) lol

    For the oldest dwarf, I think that is fine art Zenon, don't listen to FD!

    Ahora, a descansar :D

    What tour would be complete without a trip to the gift shop to pick up a few souvenirs of the fun? Great postcards, enjoy your snooze....

    I know I didn't make it here every day, but you're in excellent company. I didn't make it to lots of places every day!

    Toasting you for an awesome A-Z.

    I liked seeing the inner workings of the Dragon's Sanctum. The Dwarves were quite hospitable, I have to say.

    Well done, Al, I really enjoyed your theme and see you when you come out of hibernation :)

    Hey Al,

    I'm sorry I couldn't visit on every posting you did on the alphabet challenge. However, I have much respect to you and everybody who did this challenge I would never participate in :)

    Be well, happy blogging and I look forward to our further interaction, my friend.
