Mountain Landscape with Flowers, Feb 2, 2024

Traveling Lady

Christine can’t help creating portraits even after you’ve taken her sketchbook and pens away. Even her luggage looks like it is packed up  and ready for the sun with hat and sunglasses!

Mellowing with Age!!

Rushing to get ready to leave to drive to the coast, but want to post something, so HERE is a replay of a blog from long ago which makes use of the word Mellow.

 

The MVB prompt is mellow

Packing all done, we had a fun final night before Christine and I take off for the beach. I was again a bad influence and brought out the Cheetos Torciditos. Even Brad let himself be lured into a bowlful. Christine was busy sketching a photo in one of my books about Africa, and I was busy recording it all. Weather was lovely today so we had two long swims. Also visited the bank to pay my yearly fees for my house and lot. Another item ticked off the list. Next communication will be from La Manzanilla.

Sidewalks for MVB, Jan 30, 2024

Sidewalks

Be it narrow, be it wide,
A sidewalk’s made for side-to-side.
Slab by slab and stone by stone,
I do not want to walk alone.

MVB’s prompt today is Sidewalk

You may think this interesting bloom is coming from the Hen and Chicks plant in the third photo, but actually it is coming from the frilled variety in the fourth picture. Its scientific name is Echeveria Shaviana E. Walther, commonly known as the Mexican Hen and Chicks.
