Vacation Squared

Took some vacation time to spend in the studio of my talented and generous friend, Marge Malwitz. Marge turned me on to squares and composition with colors or themes. Here's one I did. Gonna hang it on my refrigerator!

What's so funny about peace, love and understanding?

Not a blessed thing :)

Mystic Calypso!

Another enjoyable summer evening in Elizabeth Park. Tonight it was calypso. The place was filled with happy picnic-ers and oodles of kids. The adults danced the rumba while the kids formed a conga line.

Joyful, joyful...

Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee, opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness,; drive the dark of doubt away.
Giver of immortal gladness, fill us with the light of day!

Proud Topsy Turvey Owner!

My step-mother, Marie, has two Topsy Turvies going in her backyard. Plenty of green tomatoes on 'em, but who knows if they'll ever turn red. Oh well, there's always fried green tomatoes if they don't!

A Tomato Grows in Hartford

Green beans, corn, broccoli, eggplant, lettuce, zucchini and sunflowers too! Along with three co-workers, I visted the kids at the Charter Oak Cultural Center today to see how the garden was coming along that they planted this past May. It's coming a long quite nicely!

While there, we also introduced a fun new game on nutrition -- The Energy Garden. The game was a hit!
