Argh!

good morning all,

I had planned a different post today... i made a video of clips from playing at the river and making art and it was all slow motion and calm.... but it was not to be for today. It's stuck somewhere in the frustrating virtual world of google, yahoo and you tube. I have wasted too much time trying to find and fix, enter yet another password and post and I give up for today. Instead here's some calm photos and my haiku...










The river soothes me
water flows over my toes
problems disappear




seeya!

So finally a moment for me to thank you for sharing your lovely art and heart with people you've never met. Your art is gorgeous and fresh and original! I am in love with your rocks and falling ladies! Have a lovely weekend!
