Remember Whensday - Another craft from the past

Stained glass bath set
I received so many nice comments from last week’s Remember Whensday post of one of my drawings from the past. Plus much encouragement to draw again. Thank you all! If I didn’t spend so much time online I might return to drawing. I’ll try to share some of my other favorites soon.

I’ve done so many arts and crafts. Seems like when I accomplish one, not mastered mind you, I get bored and move on. Such is the way with my life as well.

Yes, that’s me
I actually owned a small craft store in Tonasket, Washington during the 80s. At the time I was into stained glass. Also regularly painted the store windows, this was for Founders Day and Rodeo. Later when living in Wenatchee I taught classes and showed in some local galleries.

Sally from The (Mis) Adventures of Karl and Sally has started a new meme where the past is remembered through sharing old family photographs and this is #17. I love the idea and hope you will too. So join the fun by clicking here.

Not sure when I'll get back online over the next few days so I will apologize ahead of time for missing many posts. Will try to catch up when I can.

My World Tuesday - The gypsy life in Washington

After struggling to barely survive financially in the flea market business, especially alone on the road, I returned to Washington to work and live at Eagles Cliff Resort on the south side of Mount Saint Helens.  Read more here.

Sky Watch Friday - Stormy Spring Sky

A sure sign of spring - return of the osprey to their ancestral nest.

This single lane bridge is located in Amboy, Washington. When it came time to paint the bridge a new nest holder was built and the long used nest moved. The returning couple settled in like they had for many generations.

I’m thankful for seeing the sky every day.

Happy Thanksgiving!
