I usually like to take a jaunt in the woods on the day after Thanksgiving, regardless of the weather. It had been a couple of years, so I walked Bloomer Park this time. A good trek.

Some pics from Friday's visit to the Detroit Institute of Arts. I did a couple of sketches, but nothing to write home about. Or maybe, sketch home about?

I've been falling behind with some pics that I've wanted to share. So, let's get to it! Last week, we joined a friend standing near some farmland just north of us and finally, was able to see the Aurora Borealis, both with the naked eye and better with my phone camera. Very cool!

The 2nd was the anniversary of when Tina and I first met. I said 'Happy Gotcha Day!'
She responded with 'I'm not a dog!'
Then I said, 'no, but I am.'
