Update about blog

The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

Wordless Wednesday Miscellaneous

 

I just turned 84. Just saying. Time to wear shades. I may have given up on a bit of things Mick is known for, but I still love Rock n roll!



From my pottery making days...



John Singer Sargent (American, Impressionism, 1856–1925) Simplon Pass, Chalets1911.

by Alan Ostmann, who may have a birthday with me.



This really makes me mad. Sorry it's a bit blurry.

      Thanks so much. Several years sounds good...and I am focused more on one day at a time now. I woke up to another beautiful dawn. Most of this old bod works...and I'm so grateful!

      Sweet Dolly. What's your favorite song of hers? I keep hearing ones I hadn't heard before, because I don't listen to country music much.

    Sounds like everyone is a fan of your pottery; me too! Mick and Keith - two icons to bad living, .lol. Wishing you many more years.
