I'm away from my computer for a few days, So I can only share already posted images.

Yes, it hangs in my home. Portraits of him, his sister, and his mother were all painted at the same time, and hung in his parents' home a long time ago. I'd lost track of them, and hadn't thought about his in years when my son found it in the barn! He hung it in my house without telling me that he'd found it. I came home that day and was doing something near the painting when it caught my eye. To say I was startled was an understatement! LOL

The gardens have been transformed into a winter wonderland - beautiful! Annie, the only thing better than chocolate would be gold covered chocolate - almost too pretty to eat! Igmd, I love how the birds tails can be seen poking out from under the snow covered shelter of the feeders. I'm sure the birds appreciate it! Looks inviting, Jim. Street food is the best and I think one of the best ways to experience local food as well. It hasn't been all prettied up for the tourists and is the real deal.

It's all wet and gloomy out this morning, but oh, I am so glad, we need the moisture. Our lakes are near record lows. Anyway, thus, here is yesterday mornings sun rise.
