This is my place for writing and reflecting on life here in the mountains. Close to the sky, close to my children and family and most certainly feeling the closeness of God my Savior.
wally seems to have used himself as model for this painting - must have forgotten to take them off - glad to know you look closely shelley. are you an art student?
that's cool..... btw, you'll have to stop being so whiney about my short comments. I check your site a couple of times a day usually and I can't help it if I'm in a hurry and cannot think of anything mightily enrapturing to say.
So sue me, Mister Man!! :-)
Tell me how to make sure that I am not counting my own visits. Because I think I set it to not count me, but maybe not.
Anyway, I don't actually go to my site several times a day, I just go to everyone else's.
David, no, not an art student though I am taking a fundamentals of drawing class this semester...which reminds me I have some drawing homework to do before Wednesday evenings class...
It just kind of jumped out at me that it looked like he was wearing glasses.
Living life, higher at 7000 feet elevation. Where the smell of pines, a distinct nip in the air, the sunset and sunrise displays of color and light fill your soul and set your spirit soaring. From high atop the mountains, nowhere near the city, I think, I write, I try to make you laugh. It is just me, my oxygen deprived brain and my bird and squirrel friends.
I am a lover of God, and I am a lover of life. My three wonderful children help me be a better man, and I consider fatherhood my most important role. These kids have made my life meaningful and filled with beauty. Nothing compares to them or gets between us.
My mom lived 91 years and as youngest I was privileged to make sure she was comfortable and safe in her own home, was never alone, had plenty of friends and family coming around. She knew, before she passed away, how much we kids appreciated all she did for us over the many years.
I am the youngest of five. I have ADD and it makes me fun, or irritating, depending on who you ask.
Most of all I am real, so this blog has fun aspects and then serious writings, too. You get both, for one click of the mouse.

this is hanging in the stairway at my church. I knew the painter years ago, I wonder where he is at now?
It looks like Jesus is wearing glasses...

Did Wally use himself as a model for both men? because they both look very similar.
Michele sent me.

It DOES look like Jesus is wearing glasses. Michele sent me. Have a great week, David!
Interesting painting. I have never seen this one. Have a great week up in Big Bear. Big Bear is lovely. Michele sent me tonight.
Jesus also looks way older than 30, closer to the painter age. what does that say ? and can we get the painting a makeover....
