I like this name 5 thingy! I remember those Tupperware pill boxes. I wish I had a music system downstairs in my art area. I am fascinated by your wish to travel the Oregon trail in a Conestoga wagon. I hope you get to do that one. Studying people is very interesting to me too.
I read your last post about your new printer. Is it a big format printer as well? I'd be super excited if I were you too. What kind of paper do you plan to use for your prints? I used to love Great White Matte Brochure paper. It held ink perfectly for a sharp image. They stopped making it. I was so sad. I've done a little research before on good paper, but didn't order any when I saw the price. I didn't have any particular project in mind, I just salivate over good paper...one of my idiosyncrasies I suppose.
I'm with you on character studies. Like your pics too.
Whenever I go to the beach I always, always look for sea glass! I love it!!!
If you haven't read the book Sea Glass by Anita Shreve you MUST!
Is that a petoskey stone in the photograph? How amazing is that? I think I'll go collecting with you!
Thanks for the tag, Julie. I swear, I WILL get to it, eventually.
Yes, I think you would enjoy Anita Shreve's book, Sea Glass.
Glad to hear your Dad is getting better!
I like all your 5 - 25 things! Do they have wagon trips down the coast of Oregon?
I love beach glass!
Interesting....A lot of the area I cover in my job follows the Oregon Trail. I have seen many of the sights! I wish there was some way a permanent trail could be established to allow people to cover it by horse, wagon, bike, or hike. That would be cool. But, since it probably won't happen, I continue to visit many of the sights and "try to hear" the pioneers.
This made me smile - lovely.
