Roy Lichtenstein’s House I (1999) plays with perception: its painted aluminum structure twists architecture into a dynamic illusion. As viewers move, the static sculpture seems to flip and rotate—proof that our minds shape reality.🌀

The joys of Borough Market. I adore this place: the smells from the cooking and the rythm of people bustling around. You will find every kind of food here. Utterly wonderful. 😊

Scrolling through here is generally a pleasure with people reminding me that there are good things in the world. Here's an apple from my garden to help things along...

Y’all remember what didn’t happen when Biden was president? *Any* of this shit. Tariffs, war with Venezuela, masked secret police grabbing people off the streets, people about to lose food aid, health care premiums skyrocketing, none of this.

Yesterday I enjoyed a BLT sandwich with a fried egg and a cup of tea at the pub where I live. I am looking South-West across Herefordshire towards Wales.

Another spin round old Sol and I find I'm 68 but feel 50 years younger most of the time.
It has been a very difficult year personally, but friends and family have been absolutely rock-solid for me, despite my failings, for which I will be forever thankful.

You never know where your journey may take you. That is one of the biggest joys in life. Keep your mind open and curious in all things. Even on the hard days, know that there is hope and there are choices. Embrace every day, and live it. 😊

Have started a watercolour painting for my dear friends of 50 years+. Will leave out the car and include them sitting on the bench on the right.

Beautiful views of snow-covered fields and distant hills on my way to my school for the day. Sadly, no time to stop and take photos 😪.

Have you heard about the Scots and their winter Road Gritters? In a wonderful playful act, they decided to cheer us all up in wintertime by giving them individual funny names! And the names that were chosen by the public are hilarious! 👇

Hi. Another escapee from Muskville, Tennessee. Hoping for positive vibes, fascinating people and celebrations of life. I like golf, TV & film, reading, Star Trek TOS, songwriting, playing guitar, watercolour painting... to name a few.
