Sisters

 

It was a nice day at Descanso Gardens where these sisters, who are both artists, attended an art show. At the show they met some professional artists. In this photo, they are having a long conversation about their own artwork and the photos they took that day.

My first garden

 

I looked around my yard to find a piece of ground for growing vegetables and fruit. I used boulders and rocks from the yard to outline the garden. I worked very hard and well cultivated the region in the yard. Then I planted-tomatoes, eggplant, onions, corn, and zucchini.

Alaska Cruise




Posted by Picasa
The top two photos show us going into Juneau Harbor. You can see another cruise ship in front of us. The water was very calm. The next shows the icebergs in Disenchantment Bay. The last photo is of Hubbard Glacier. It is about forty stories high. Sometimes chunks of turquoise ice calve into Glacier Bay.
