So, been absent here for a long time....maybe a month. In the interim had to replace an automobile, begin a job search and prepare for and execute the wedding festivities for the youngest of our daughters! It was the last activity which brought the greatest happiness, delight, energy and joy...overwhelmed the other stuff by lots!!
Faith was married by the ocean in Marion, Massachusetts on June 30th. with the reception just steps away at a beautiful facility, part of a club my family has had connections with for decades. Danced and had fun 'til they insisted we leave to allow the staff to set up for the next day's events. Music provided by Shirley Lewis, a Boston blues institution who at seventy-five made the house jump! Great party!!
Spent two weeks at the beach in Marion, freed from the constraints of employment, swimming, doing the wedding stuff, having friends and family visit. Just Great! And, today I got my first unemployment check! Could life be better??!
Not gonna go into the job stuff 'cept to say that looking for work is a challenge, so if anyone wants to make an offer on a picture.......
With all of that I still had some time to do art. Walked the beach on Sippican Bay each day and retrieved bags of shells. I'd sit at a table, arrange them in some fashion and find my pens and sketchbook.
