Our house

Lee wrote the check and mailed it.

Now, this tree is ours.

These stones are ours.

This house is ours!

Norton Simon Art Museum

We haven't been here in a long time. Many paintings have been refurbished and are glowing with freshness. The paintings and sculptures are arranged in a nice combination. Lee took my picture in this beautiful room. We ate lunch at the cafe by the pond. We liked it so much that we bought a yearly membership.

Many of the paintings, (these I'm showing) bring back memories because some were chosen by students I brought and they wrote wonderful poems about them.

The student that wrote about this one won a prize.

This "musical" moving tree by Van Gogh is one of my favorites, too.

Art we liked

Art Festival 2/2012

This art festival is an annual event that we have really enjoyed for the last two years.
