This is a scene I have painted many times. It is at the Town Landing in Blue Hill, Maine, USA. One of my paintings of this spot, but in springtime, a friend calls her "happy spot". The peace of the view is always unique but still the same.

Somes Sound, the view out the window of the library... I could look at it forever and not get tired of it.

The weather has been hard on these bushes...will keep an eye as to whether they will be removed or were just trimmed.

The homemade soups were elegant, and I told the pasta was too. There were sandwiches, sliced cheese, bakery bread, and lots of choices for dessert. No one went hungry tonite...and some took meals home for tomorrow.

There was plenty of fresh fruit and bread to take home. There is no charge. If you can afford a donation there is a descrete box to leave one.

The writing group at Pat's Pizza. We have limited choices during the off season, so you'll notice many times, we are eating at the same place many times til the summer restaurants open again. This was our first time as a group to eat at Pat's..

The Portrait group braved the cold weather to paint Marjorie.

101.3 year old Marjorie is a repeat model... elegant and a perfect model: sits still, keeps her pose, and still carries on a conversation !

The writers had lunch at Denny's after Pinocle and Apples to Apples at the Senior Center. It started to spit snow wnen we arrived and the ground was white when we left. We ended up with 4.5 inches by Friday morning.

Bianca fell asleep on the floor...maybe she's dreaming of warmer weather and her favorite grass that grows beside the front steps. She likes it toasty warm.

?? Making a come back ?? Didn't know these were legal anymore... but this isn't the first time I've seen memorabelia from the past start showing up hanging from the rear view mirror.. It would drive me bonkers to have anything like that hanging there.

Not your ordinary game you'd find on the shelf at Walmart ...but there it is ! Didn't buy it, but HAD to take a photo of it.

One of our Deacons at St.Dunstan's Episcopal Church is going to serve at another nearby church. We will miss her greatly.

The Rev. Peggy Day is tiny but mighty. A wonderful worker for the holy spirit. We will miss her leadership and friendship. She will be an assest to her new parish.

A sunny, cold, brisk day...not much above zero F. A glorious day the Lord has made.
