Recently my wonderful friend, and roommate of several years during college, came to visit. It was so awesome! We talked non-stop and Mark couldn't even interrupt our flow at some points, poor man. LOL. We also got to show her the bees. AND we took her to see the big pecan on the square. I sat in the back so she could have a good view of the sights of Seguin and I watched as we neared the square to see if she'd do the same thing I did when I was first introduced to the World's Largest Pecan. She did. She looked up, into the sky. She was looking for the World's Largest Pecan the same way I did fifteen years ago. I laughed so hard! And then I told her to look down! I love that. And she loved the pecan. And then we had to take her to see the new World's Largest Pecan (For Real). :-) We had a lovely weekend together.
I hope everyone's had a nice Christmas holiday so far and that you have a great new year coming up soon. Be safe!These are some snowflakes I quilled out of paper I had. Then they were glued to card stock and crafted into a little card for friends and family. Yay! I finally ventured beyond Valentine's hearts like I normally make for folks! :-)I've been having some technical issues these past couple of weeks. Well, quite a few actually, so that's why I have not posted. Hopefully I am on the mend though I seem to be pushing my luck tonight since this post is not looking quite like I planned. So I will say goodnight for now. It's nice to back though.
This is a mural depicting scenes from our town's past and can be found on the side of the Chiro Java, a coffeehouse down on the square.
Between home and work, I had passed this artwork many times and it really caught my eye. Mark's also. But either I didn't have my digicam or the lighting wasn't right or I was in a hurry or something. But I finally found a day to get a shot.I don't know the story on this and I have no idea who the artist is but there's just something about it that is so appealing to me. The colors are so bold; the subject interesting. There's got to be a story behind it. My friend thinks it looks a little like a mosquito, a bit like a bee. I agree. But it also reminds me of the train, from Soul Train. LOL...who remembers that show besides me???
