A friend of mine posted recently on Facebook, a photo taken from her hike on the Indian Creek Trail at Hanging Rock State Park, NC. I immediately recognized the view! Many lovely memories came rushing back of hiking a portion of this trail which leads to two waterfalls. Window Falls and Hidden Falls are … Continue reading Hidden Falls

Joslin Diabetes Center
Maddie and I are enjoying visits to the new Joslin Diabetes Center. The beautiful bright colors make you forget that the reason you are here is because your child has a life-threatening disease which requires ongoing management and education. This morning, we met with the wonderful Kathie Cooper, our diabetes educator. I say "our", because … Continue reading Joslin Diabetes Center
What I Have to Give
When the basket passes by, I often wish I could give something other than money. Not that I always have that to give. We've been taught that, MORE than our money, God wants our Hearts. So I often imagine my own little self inside that basket, being whisked away for use in His Kingdom. I … Continue reading What I Have to Give
Life Is A Garden
Walking down my favorite lane this morning, my thoughts flitted over the empty wheat field, and landed in the garden area near the end of Silver Dapple Lane. Mr. Whicker has given this end of his field to his tenants who live in homes on his land. They have a thriving garden full of corn, … Continue reading Life Is A Garden

I'm incredibly behind in showing you the drawings from these sessions, but here's one with … Continue reading Splurging at the Factory
The Beauty of Line & Watercolor
A couple of days ago, Maddie and I sat out in our backyard, in the cool morning, to draw. I had several sketchbooks (as I do when using watercolor, so that I can move on to another drawing while one is drying), pens, watercolors; and she had her big sketchbook, pencil, and markers. When she … Continue reading The Beauty of Line & Watercolor
Extra-Ordinary Lines
The thing that's so captivating about lines is that they have the power to transform the most ordinary of subjects, into something truly extraordinary! Color has this power as well. But there's something mesmerizing about following the contours of a clematis vine growing up a mailbox that seems to alter what's before me into a … Continue reading Extra-Ordinary Lines
