Loving life and wildflowers hidden in forgotten, familiar landscape paintings I see I dawdle under the canvas and think how I would love to be a part Little faces drawing dainty pictures faint with colors awash with muted hues I paint I lift the veil to find the splendour beneath is all my eye can fathom Pine trees under starry skies and drenched with snow glistening like dewdrops Bring me back, ...
Date/grill event went well. I did up a leg of lamb with rosemary and garlic and we all ate outside on the deck.

We let the ladies choose the movie out of a stack of my DVDs, so we ended up with "The Muppets Take Manhattan", which I hadn't seen since anyone in the room had been born. It was fun.

I realized today just how much a person can miss when they drive their car everywhere. I could drive somewhere in ten minutes, but I only get ten minutes of hurried sights.
