Four Sisters Journey: August 2014
http://foursistersjourney.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 12, 2014. Coming to a close. Our Four Sisters Journey came to a close with David Raymond driving us into Boston to catch our planes. We were glad for the driver who knew where he was going, leaving time for the four of us to enjoy the last bits of conversation before saying good bye. It was an amazing ten days together and we will always cherish the memories that have been created on this journey. On that good bye note, we would like to extend a few thank yous. And a HUGE thank you to Dar...

Art in the Life. Friday, June 21, 2013. I am now two weeks out the other side of finishing my time at Pierce College. Whew! I have discovered many things about myself throughout this "Back to School Journey" and some of these things surprise me. A few of my personal and educational discoveries are:. From Point A to Point B, I like to finish things. I felt compelled to tie in my blogs numerically in relationship to the assignment number. The line-up issue can cause my husband to sigh and carry on.). The C...

Four Sisters Journey: I Got All My Sisters with Me
http://foursistersjourney.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-got-all-my-sisters-with-me.html
Thursday, July 24, 2014. I Got All My Sisters with Me. It has been a fabulous day! Best beginning with Cecilia presenting us our "sister shirts". Cecilia had the idea, our sister-in-law Darcy had the artistic design, and because of the two of them, we have these great shirts that have sparked conversations wherever we go. That bike's flat tire led to a beautiful beach drive with views of the amazing red sand the water, quaint villages and the smell of the sea which led to the need for seafood. Come to fi...

Art in the Life: August 2012
http://darcysartlife.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Art in the Life. Tuesday, August 14, 2012. Growing up I didn't play many games but, Gerard and I began playing games before we were married in 1981. I remember the time my best friend, J.Patt and her partner were visiting. We played a game called Hand and Foot (similar to Canasta). It took me a while but I figured out that Gerard and J.Patt were cheating! I found out that he has a history of stacking the deck so other people would win. This particular incident was not for my benefit. She never knew Gerar...

Art in the Life: Quick Question!
http://darcysartlife.blogspot.com/2013/08/quick-question.html
Art in the Life. Monday, August 12, 2013. Does it seem odd to anyone else to drive halfway across one farming state and only see two different crops? Recently, my daughter and I went to Iowa and while we were there, we saw some lovely scenery, historic sights and a whole lot of corn. Scattered throughout some of these massive corn fields were smaller crops of soy beans. In 2006, farmers were paid $40,000 per person on the farm or $80,000 per couple, depending on their crop, of course. The top three state...
