This video is directly from YouTube. Sure it’s been around for a while but… is it a concern that during those years in the White House… Oh jeez — I meant to hit that other button. Other versions of this exist on YouTube and a simple search can locate them.

This is what I do to rest my eyes when I take a break from painting. I hope to finish my painting this weekend and maybe go somewhere that we can draw on the spot or paint. I think that I should have number of them going at once. 

I suppose I ought to get back to my Watercolor image now. Wash is dry.

Change is inevitable — so I’m changing this page layout

Just set up a new fixed width blog with what I hope will be easier to read text. All of my widgets and images in the main column will be out of whack for a while but it all will be lots better once I get it organized.  I used the latest version of Artisteer to mess with the theme and it worked out pretty well.

I had this blog design finished last month but Sue and I spent a long weekend down in Cape May and Passover then Easter came into play as well. Really nice here again today with temper­a­tures in the 80s but we are cooling off tonight and expect a line of strong thunder­storms before that happens. It has just been one extreme after another all winter long right into early Spring. I wrote a couple of long entries here about specific storms we’d had and sure enough the next week another would come along that was bigger and badder than the one that preceded it. All photog­raphy is currently offline. I took a shot at sunrise looking over the ocean from our deck and it was a fatal digital click that was heard in Cape May. I was fortunate enough to have captured a number of spectacular Victorians the day before though.

Is everyone aware that Cape May surely seems to be haunted? We were taking some shots at one of the old Hotels when a piece of siding hit the sidewalk a couple of feet away. With so many Nor’easters coming through over the past couple months — slightly hard to imagine that on this gust free, almost totally still day that a piece of siding just happened to coinci­den­tally float by…  Some pictures to follow later on.

Sue and I drew pictures of Cape May Lighthouse from various angles. Unfortunately the museum and light­house itself was closed due to the off-season. Tree damage around the parking area there showed that they had the same nasty winds that we’d had recently. Never seen so many broken limbs in my life.
