New Photographs and Cards


I have so many photographs that I've taken in the last five years that have been downloaded to my computer. There are so few of them that I have actually done any thing with. I'm in the process of going through all the files and looking at each one to see if I can see myself doing something with it. Would it make a nice framed photograph or a new set of note cards? Maybe a greeting card? I'll be sharing some of them on this blog. If you see something you really like, let me know and I will send you a signed 5x7 that you can frame. Of course I'll need your address--
Here's a photograph I took of the roses my husband sent to me for our last anniversary. I have a similar photograph on a set of note cards for sale at www.cardsonline.etsy.com. Check it out.
Look for my next photograph!

I'm back!!!!


I can't believe I haven't posted anything since April. Life has been happening and swept me right off my feet, but I'm firmly planted now and will be posting to this site regularly.


My new position on the Board of Directors for the Yorktown Arts Foundation has required at least one full day each week, but I'm enjoying it. The Foundation has a gallery, Gallery on the York, which I'm responsible for the operation of. Therefore, I have cut back on my work with the Friends of the Library to one day a week. I'm doing some work for the FOL at home. We sell donated and library discards on line at the site http://alibris.com/ and I add books to the site. The site has been very successful for us and requires several hours a week to add the books. Our seller name is West Avenue Books. If you have time, check out the site and look for one of those out-of-print books that you haven't been able to find.

My sister from Florida was here for a few days earlier this month and was here to help celebrate my birthday. Actually, I think I celebrated for a week. She and her husband and two of our friends joined us for lunch at one of our favorite restaurants. Our reservation was for 1:30 and it was 4 o'clock before we got out of there. A great time was had by all.
The picture at the top of the blog is one I have entered in a show. It is a picture I took in November in Colonial Williamsburg. I've entitled the picture "Your Carriage is Ready".
Watch for my next blog,
