Randomness

'Blue Berries' (watercolor)

'Green Waves' (watercolor) used a photo from a surf magazine as a reference. I've never painted waves before and it was kind of a challenge but I like the way it turned out!

This is what you could call a hand me down. With two older brothers, its quite common, especially when it comes to school books.  Like my poor physics book.  Its hanging on by tape!!! But this one you can't beat! I got my brother bike! With a little good bit of cleaning and a few touch ups, I'll be gone..................riding!!!! That is.......I've got to check first with my physical therapist if I can actually ride it.  I'm not saying I don't know how to ride a bike but with hip dysplasia, its another story. Well, we will see.  Hopefully he'll say its ok! If not, there's always after surgery :-D

GO VOTE, AMERICA!!!!!

From the General himself

On May 2, 1863, General Thomas Jackson (nicknamed Stonewall) of the Confederate Army, was visited by Chaplain Lacy after losing his arm from a bullet wound accidentally shot by one of his own men.

You see me severely wounded but not depressed.....I am sure that my Heavenly Father designs this affliction for my good.  I am perfectly satisfied, that either in this life, or in that which is to come, I shall discover that what is now regarded as a calamity, is a blessing.....If it were in my power to replace my arm, I would not dare to do it, unless I could know it was the will of my Heavenly Father.
