Artist of the Day

Tracy Rocca - Oil Paintings

Are they scenes through a frost covered window, images from a cataract lense, or an impressionist's view of the world?  I'm not sure, but I like them.

Check out more of Tracy's work at thru the link above and let me know what you think. ;- )

Sunset on Saturday night heralds a gathering at the bonfire with
smores to be shared by all, musical musings via guitar followed by an all important safety meeting, karaoke & movie watching.

We had such fun meeting new friends, as well as Karen's family. Sunday morning sadly sent us back once again to our usual lives in the OC. Can't wait until we are invited back again!
