Why "Traveller's Joy" ?
When I started this blog in May 2007,
it was for the sole purpose
of staying in touch
with friends and family while
we traveled
to Europe for three months.
I am still staying in touch.
"Traveller's Joy" clematis vitalba:
Wildflower found throughout
southwest Europe/Africa.
Used for medicinal purposes
and found "climbing and covering"
the roadsides of Europe.

....................................
We spend January 1
walking through our lives,
room by room,
drawing up a list of work to be done,
cracks to be patched.
Maybe this year,
to balance the list,
we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...
not looking for flaws,
but for potential.

Josh and I played at Midcoast's Final Friday at Bucktown last evening. Camille and John (Camille's brother or Dad?) SantAmour and Tim (Camille's husband) VanHyfte were the artists whose work is on display in the gallery space on 2nd floor.
Both Camille and Tim worked at Dick Blick's. Bruce Carter, Greg Pelos, and Shelley Voss were there. Naturally, Marge and Dean Schroeder, too. Terry Rathje, Tammi and Steve Schmidt. There was a painting of sunflowers that I think John Santamour did. VanGogh came to mind when I saw it and your sunflower photos.
Over the year's I've really come to believe that we're always where we're at at just the right time. There is no wrong time. We're never doing anything when we shouldn't but rather when we should.
After all, "What should it be if if shouldn't be fun?" John Hartford from the tune, 24 Polecat Skins on a Chevy Camaro. Life's short and challenging enough that Hartford's line makes a lot of sense to me. So, rejoice and be glad, smile and laugh, paint and photograph, share and love. "All you need is Love!" John Lennon.
John, your artistic skill amd level is so high. You won't have any trouble finding work. Look at where you've been and your journey to where you're at. What you share in the future, however you share it, whether through teaching, commission work, your own work, will be a blessing to all who benefit from, receive from and/or cross paths with you. The both of you! So, whatever you do, don't hesitate to (this is so cliche' and I used to holler at the girls when they refused to do something) do it, JUST DO IT!
You're both wonderful and talented people. Don't hide your talents. Share them and watch them grow!

Can I just say that my food guesses were not based on the picture. For some reason, the pictures don't always show up and I could not see the picture of the food.
Was it actual American version
Coco Puffs?
