Staying inspired on the porch...

                           First child on the left is my mother Stephanie, her sister Helen is in the middle,

                            youngest brother, Frank on the right. A cousin recently shared pictures he had 

                             of our parents as children. I had not ever seen these pictures. I am fascinated by

                              pictures of my forbears.

           

     O mag questions from February 2012

1. I'm most creative...when I am inspired by nature. I am looking forward to spring for its rebirth. 

     Buds, flowers, rain drops to photograph.

2. If I were a color I would be...spring green. It is the color of new beginnings.

3. I often imagine myself...spending a day in my hammock in Isabella with a good book.

4. I really wish I knew how to...play the piano or speak French or dance like those people on DWTS..

5. My secret talent is...I read three or four books simultaneously and keep them straight.
