Swing Into May

April 26 ::

We left our swing... just a frame, back in January. It's time to make some progress.


We have many ideas for different seat options, configurations, and designs. For now, it will be a classic wood seat, heavy, sturdy, roomy. William is shaping and smoothing the wood.

My Christmas present... and a dream come true. A swing so big that even a grown person will feel six years old.

What sweeter way to welcome this new month, than with lilacs, so rare and beautiful.

Alex's watercolor entry in the student gallery.


My first entry into a show, this watercolor painting of the farmhouse (Highland House) that we had the pleasure of renting on a visit to Wisconsin. It was surrounded by barns, and outbuildings, and hundred acres of land, open for exploring.
