This is my third go at this Maine Lighthouse. The previous two were much larger and painted from a photo taken from the north side. This one is 11X14 and relies on a photo I took from the south side. I added the thunderstorm.

Started painting with acrylics after a layoff of more than 15 years. Very rusty, and I wish I was consistent. I recently finished this 8X10. #acrylics #painting #waterfalls

When something barely misses you, describe the intervening distance as a "hair's breadth." When you kiss a member of the Leporidae family, speaking of a "hare's breath" is appropriate.

I quickly discovered that I can't make everyone happy with any story I write, and so I decided that the person I should focus on making happy is me.

Hey gang! Watermelon football season is here: Using a 5-10 lb watermelon, the rules are the same as 6 player football, except that field goals are worth a hundred points, and kickoffs consist of a watermelon roll. If the watermelon survives, the winning team eats it.

The number of Indian restaurants in Edinburgh impresses me, more than 150, which must be 8 to 10 times the number in San Antonio. However, San Antonio has 1018 Mexican Restaurants. I smile every time I pass a restaurant with the word TACO on their building. I'm smiling a lot these days.
