Art Show

 I was one of a group of artists who help a pop up art market in Rockford, Michigan this past Saturday. The Rogue River Artists are a local group of artists and we host shows/sales 4 times a year. 


This summer pop up was hindered by extremely high temps, gusty winds, road construction and lack of parking. But, we made it through. 


I enjoy visiting with the guests and love to hand bookmarks out to children. 


Here are some of the works I had on display for sale. 














Here is a look at my display. 





If you were a customer or someone I chatted with, thank you! 

Many items shown are available for purchase. 

Thank you for your support.

I did not drop off the face of the earth

 Wow - where did I go?!?


Last fall we bought a condo in Arizona to be closer to the grandkids. Well, it worked:)

Even though at 6 and 8 they are in school all day, we kept busy with occasional drop offs and picks ups. Then there are sports and lessons and activities. Plus with the gorgeous weather out there, I could get my 3 mile walk in every day. We also enjoyed meeting a couple of friends for walks and another couple for weekly dinners. 

I set up a small art/craft area in one of the bedrooms but I did not get to use it as much as I would have liked. 

 got home in May and had about 10 days to get ready for a Viking Rhine Cruise. Our 50 th wedding anniversary was this past Saturday and the trip was to celebrate that. 

We were home from that for almost two weeks, when we hosted three caddies who were here working at the LPGA Meijer Golf Tournament. We spent Thursday - Sunday of last week walking the course and following the different golfers. We enjoy hosting the guys and one of them has stayed with us for the past 5 years or so. 

I have done a bit of scrapping - trying to catch up on memories from the past several years. I am also preparing for an art show this Saturday. 


I will share a few photos of our trip, my latest scrapbooking projects and some of my art. 


I appreciate anyone who still checks in occasionally. I will try to do better:)
