I did mine at work! I only had colored pencils and an alphabet stamp set with me, so I "scribbled" a frame (haven't put a photo in yet) and colored plain paper with pencils on which to stamp the letters. I used post-it notes to mask off the hand and also added three quotes from a little calendar that sits on my desk.

Finally, time to write about the level of the reservoir (lake). This photo is taken from the same dock in the previous pictures, just looking to my right toward the east edge of Boulder Bay. Obviously, things are a little askew here….
Per the records of the Big Bear Municipal Water District, the lake was down just over 15’ when I was there. From the records, it looks like the lake doesn’t vary by much during a year (it was 13’ low in January). Going back through the records, it’s been more than 10’ low ever since August 12, 2014 and the last time it was close to full was 2011. Per most of the records that I could find, the capacity of the reservoir is 73,320 acre feet, on August 12th it was at 33,993 acre feet, or 46% of capacity.
I’m guessing that the reason these docks are not further extended into the open water is that doing so would impeded access to the water for others and from the park.

The church is a Grade I Listed Building.
The Church of St Mary, Studley Royal, is a Victorian Gothic Revival church built in the Early English style by William Burges. It is located in the grounds of Studley Royal Park at Fountains Abbey, in North Yorkshire, England. Burges was commissioned by the First Marquess of Ripon to build the church as a memorial church to Frederick Grantham Vyner, his brother in law. It is one of two such churches, the other being the Church of Christ the Consoler at Skelton-on-Ure.
Frederick Vyner had been murdered by Greek bandits in 1870. A significant ransom had been demanded, and in part collected, before his death. His mother, Lady Mary Vyner, and his sister, Lady Ripon, used the unspent ransom to build the two churches in his memory. Burges' appointment as architect was most likely due to the connection between his greatest patron, John Crichton-Stuart, 3rd Marquess of Bute, and Vyner, who had been friends at Oxford. St Mary's, was commissioned in 1870 and work began in 1871. The church was consecrated in 1878. As at Skelton, Burges' design demonstrates a move from his favoured Early-French, to an English style. Pevsner writes of "a Victorian shrine, a dream of Early English glory." The interior is spectacular, exceeding Skelton in richness and majesty. The stained glass is of particularly high quality. St Mary's is Burges' "ecclesiastical masterpiece."
In 1970, the church was declared redundant, and three years later it was taken into the guardianship of the Department of the Environment (whose responsibilities were later taken over by English Heritage).
Today
The church and belongs to English Heritage and is managed by the National Trust. A local management agreement of 2008 lays down that English Heritage is responsible for the conservation and maintenance of the church, and the National Trust for visitor access.

I have been tagged by the beautiful and talented Rohsuanita.
I need to write 10 things about me. I should tag 10 other people but it's not my thing so here's what I got:
1) I had artists block for about 3 years while I was in art school and after I got out.
2) Michael Jackson songs always made me happy, except after he died then they made me sad, now it's mixed.
3) When I was 7 MJ came to perform in Tel Aviv and I wanted to go so bad but my mom wouldn't let me because I was too young. I think I finally forgave her in my teens.
4) I work in a kindergarden
5) sometimes I steal ideas from the kids' drawings.
6) Deep down I wish I could be a hip hop dance star, but I don't think that's going to happen.
6) I only have patience to read short stories and comix. I think I've read about 10 novels in my lifetime.
7) I'm scared to ride a bike.
8) When I was little I used to get an alergic reaction to eating tomatoes, but I loved them so I'd have a swollen red face all the time.
9) this last year I went to puppetry school. The teachers said I move the characters too fast. My final show I did two puppets lipsynch "chop suey" by system of a down. It was a hit :)
10) my artist idols are picasso, Jan Svankmajer, Roald Dahl (writer) and Jim Hensen.
So now you know.
oh, and I'm not much of a counter either....
