I Need an Appointment

 




Thank you, for the rope
you brought up the tree, Toby.
Rappelling was fun.

The laptop crisis is over with a honey of a new machine. The loading of an external hard drive became suspenseful getting the drive's pictures and documents files to show up in their new accommodations. Thanks to John, all is now in place.

That was completed on Monday. Catch up is in progress. Our family and friends have been busy sharing their art to lift our spirits and render our world a better place. 

Our friend Paula has steadily posted on her Substack site: Paula Borchardt - Visual Storyteller. We also have her June Tucson Yard Journal to post here...

The Tucson rainy season began with a downpour that brought out...

... 1/4 inch, Red Velvet Mites, that Paula captured so nicely living it up in her and Carl's yard.

And, Carl got this one of another desert denizen who is happy with the rains, too...

...this Gila Monster is also happy with their yard.

In New Mexico, Valerie continues her color-filled art explorations...

________

...and in Missouri, Susie, both on her own and in her watercolor painting class, turns out multiple renderings...

the apple is ripe
many hands brought it to me
with thanks I eat it
