A real joy, especially that cha-cha dancing great blue heron. You are such a lovely couple.<br />Thank you for being my friend and sending me those sweet Christmas wishes. Since my husband died, I have been an intermittent blogger, not up to visiting much. Hope to see more of your work in the coming year though.<br />I have finally my easel up and am going back to oil painting.<br />Lots of love and A Happy Christmas to you both as well as your family.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4773600389646021892.post-9544323688132082962014-12-11T17:33:39.343-05:002014-12-11T17:33:39.343-05:00Happy Wanderer, ice is even worse for crutches!

Gus did have a very artistic eye and I am so sorry he cannot do his photography any more! I do agree that I have a great partner in life.

I've got that going here, too and have so appreciated Mike's willingness to fill the bird feeders when my back was too bad to do them. I know he doesn't care as much as I do, so the sacrifice is that much more.
