Happy Thanksgiving!

May the holidays be relaxing and enjoyable for everybody. We're going to overeat at Mom's house and so many folks are coming with food that I'm off the hook this year oh boy!

It's Fall Festival Time in the Texas Hill Country

A great trip!

I had a great trip, we are all good cooks so we ate well, weather was perfect, got to paint a lot. Here's a painting I did of Georgia O'Keeffe's Ghost Ranch. I painted it on a post card that I sent to my Mom.

Girls' Road Trip!

It looks like I'm headed west for a week, traveling through New Mexico & parts of Colorado on an expense paid trip by a couple of friends! I'll be gone through my birthday which doesn't sit well with the rest of the residents of my household (2 legged and 4) but I feel like this is something I need to do, mostly for the artistic inspiration I hope I get! It's been a long time since I traveled through that area & I'm really excited to return.

After Doll Show Report

Oh boy was it a sign of the times at the doll show yesterday. The only thing selling was old, beat up, & dirty dolls that went for $.50 or $1. Those of us with handmade clothes, dolls, bears, or furniture were not selling anything. We had a good time though, met some nice people, had a relaxing evening in a nice hotel and a good trip. I don't think I'll be doing that show again, though, I may not do any show again because I can't afford to go in the hole.
