HAPPY NEW YEAR

By this time the hangovers should be getting better. Something I didn't have to worry about. Stayed home and read a couple of the funniest books. Both by Patrick McManus. All short stories about hunting and fishing and kids pranks way back when. One titled "The Grasshopper Trap" and the other "The Good Samaritin Strikes Again" The first story in the Grashopper Trap is titled the Skunk Ladder. I laughed so hard I couldn't see to read because of tears.
The Picture here is a small Bear I did on the Shell Rice Paper and 4x6. For Sale if anyone interested.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2009

"May the Christlmas Spirit Travel to You."

Hope everyone has a great Christmas and New Year. Next year has to be better.
