        Thanks Virginia, really like the photos you uploaded. They are interesting and challenging. Like the windup toys.

        Do you recognize the farm road? It’s the one around the corner from my house. I believe I sent you the watercolor of it?

        Thank you!

        Thanks! That lion is from the local garden store. This store sells those topiary trees, last year they had a camel and an elephant. If they have them again and I don’t restrain myself, one of them is going to end up in my front yard. :)

                Christel, that farm is called “The Mad Farmer’s Garden”. I really like how you did that, it looks so good.

                Dan, that’s wonderful. You have such a great style, it’s so cool that you cna do that on your phone.

                Hi Lil, glad to see you. :)

                A very impressive rural scene, Christel, you have nailed it. Very welcoming.
