JR, working on a massive canvas we dragged on a 1hr train ride back to Southport.
Gotta love a good Rennie's bargain though.
I hate seeing these beautiful old Spanish style buildings being knocked down.
Usually you don't notice it. One day it's there, the next day it's an empty lot, a day later it's some fugly box with four times as many units.
More people, more congestion, more traffic, less happiness.
Whatever is built in their place will not add anything more to the city than these buildings have been giving for the past 70 to 80 years.
They are finally starting the city water project on our road. The neighbors are thrilled. But I have mixed feelings. We all have wells, but I am the only one with a good well (we drilled 180 foot past several sulpher streams to hit good water) Our well tests out cleaner than city water and tastes so much better. I know the project is needed, but am not sure what to hook up in the house. I refused to sign the right of way and users agreements that originally said I had to disconnect my well. I can use both and will put in a valve that will allow me to switch between the two.
The construction company was leaving their equip on the side of the road and it was vandalized, so I told them that they could park their equip up near the road on our property. My boys are thrilled and go out everyday after they are done to examine the new pipes and bits and pcs they have brought in.
The Ellie Mitchell Pavilion at Rocky Neck State Park; East Lyme, CT; constructed in 1936 by the Works Progress Administration
As you can see, people are flocking in to see the progress being made and try out the new bars and eating places on the arm.
Built in 1838 as a temporary lodging for Great Lakes Indians. Not very successful, it closed in 1847. From 1867 to 1961 is was used as the schoolhouse for Mackinac Island.
It may not look like it, but this is my husband smiling...a rare capture on film so I decided it would be the perfect picture to draw for his Christmas present. I am making good progress on this picture. One of his eyes is off a bit...driving me crazy trying to figure out how to make it right. It happens every time...one eye doesn't want to cooperate. And shading on the arms is not good yet...plus not finished with the black shirts. But it's getting there!
