Oh sorry. I thought you were showing how pretty, but you’re showing how treacherous. Eek, what’s a big truck doing on it?

Just thinking out loud: 

We are all naked
Under our clothes
Some of us novice
Some of us pros

Thanks Amy. My wife recently took in a 3-legged kitten. She was working (field service for power company) and found it living under a pile of rubbish at a house in a very rural area that was getting its power cut off (the homeowners/renters? were long gone). $1600.00 in vet bills later and regular meals the kitty seems to have taken a liking to her surroundings. That makes 5 abandoned cats now and 1 dog that she got from a kennel.

 POETS

Frost would take
The lesser road
Kilmer loves
The trees
Magee will soar
In high flight
Masefield to 
Sail the seas
Whittier just a
Barefoot boy
Markham to hoe
The sod
Dickinson loves 
The things of man
But Blake 
The things of God

No trucks over 50 feet are allowed to drive in the canyon - yet, yesterday, in the chain of traffic behind me, there was a HUGE 18 wheeler! Those guys can’t stop on a dime, and have a horrible time going around those huge curves. They have to go clear over into the other lane, putting all incoming traffic at risk.

‘Dita, thank you. I knew who the artist was as soon as I saw your picture.

(Wish I did look like one of Maxfield Parrish’s ladies.) He has always been one of my most favorite artists - I love the soft, muted, colors, his flowing gowns, the columns......everything he has ever painted is so soft, relaxing and peaceful.

His style is unique, and it’s very pleasing to my eye also.
My mother got me started on his art by giving me one of his prints.
I like it that we can share these things online.
