My first post in a long time here Marjo. Today I felt joy seeing this little bird and wanted to share it. Haven’t felt like doing that for a while. Glad you like it my friend 😊

I’m enamored with these single trees dotted throughout the landscape in Bryce. Early mornings are the best here, when the sun makes the sandstone glow with a deep orange/red color in contrast to the green conifers. I love the textures and patterns in the rock as well.

Favorite things: lone trees amongst the glowing red rock at sunrise in Bryce Canyon National Park. See ALT text for more.

Hello everyone! Been a while 😊

Love this! Our visit to the aquarium was magical. Can’t wait to get back there.

Utah’s national parks and monuments are treasures that must be protected.

Such an incredible park! Thank you Janet 😊

I don’t think tags are working right now.

Watercolor painting of fall colored trees. Vibrant colored leaves on the trees, some leaves on the wet ground.

I loved painting this #autumn scene, inspired by a visit to Saint Mary's College of California. A watercolor for the #BlueSkyArtShow. 🍂 Original available at Moraga Art Gallery in the #BayArea. 🎨 moragaartgallery.com

It’s been really disheartening to see the things people say about those who use SNAP. Many seem to have little understanding of why the program exists in the first place.

Maples are special! Glad we have so many here too 😊

Autumn meets winter.
