Odds and Ends


Isn't she a cutie?  Left behind a curtain on the window sill in the guest room by granddaughter #3.  I'll return her to granddaughter next time I see her.


During vacation a week ago I tried my hand at watercolors again.

First two are attempts at painting birch trees.



This one was the first I did on a tiny piece of watercolor paper.  It's the island we canoed to where there was a rock that birds liked to sit on so we named it.


Our local paper doesn't publish a Sunday version so all the Sunday comics come in the Saturday paper.  Dan reads the comics religiously.  Me?  I read the ones he points out to me.  Here are two from current issue.

  3. Summer's a great time to break out the watercolors. And to record places you've been. Good for you.

  4. Beautiful paintings. I love birch trees. The Oklahoma City Sunday paper used to have 12 pages of color comics. When I went to college and later, my Mom would fold them up and mail them to me. I stopped getting them when my son started college cuz she mailed them to him! Heaven isn't sending us any comics though. Linda in Kansas
