Somewhere Out There

Somewhere Out There
Somewhere out there is a place just waiting for us. Once in 
our life as we ramble from place to place we find that perfect spot. 
The one we will never forget and as we grow older at times we will always
go back there in our memories just to visit once more. 
My somewhere out there place is a little campground at
Two Medicine , Montana.
No I will never forget. I think that I even now feel the crisp mountain air.
aaaaah!

A baby whitish cow. I know that I paint a lot of still lifes but

What I Think

What I Think
What I Think....I think I want a treat. I think that I am quite handsome and need to 
be petted. I think I don't get enough attention. I think people need to give more respect to 
dogs...I think all of the dogs in animal shelters should find a home. I think there should be no
animal abuse. I think that every puppy should find a little girl or boy of their own. I think
that every old dog should have their own rug right in front of someones fireplace.
I Think.....................

Before The Cock Crows

Before The Cock Crows
He looks a little serious to me. What do you think is on his mind?
I think he is full of questions like what should I do Before The Cock Crows? 
I should put someone else before myself....
I should say some kind word to someone who needs it...
I should tell my husband that I love him.....
I should treasure today just because I have breath....
I should thank God for my life....my home....my family....my friends and for you....
That is what I should do Before The Cock Crows

Deep Thoughts

Deep Thoughts
Sometimes we can remove ourselves from any situation and be all alone even in a room full of hustle and bustle. We can steal away to a faraway place if we just close our eyes and let everything else go.
I go there sometimes when ever I find myself thinking those Deep Thoughts.

Hanging Out at the Top

Hanging Out at The Top
Well I am a mouse sitting on top of a green cup. In real life
my tail is attached closely to my body but for today I decided to let it all hang down. 
Yep! I sit here at the top just looking out over everything. My thoughts......
I sure am glad that I am not an egg. They are useless. At least I can eat this 
hunk of cheese in peace.

When Angels Dance

When Angels Dance
When angels dance you know something good has happened. 
When angels dance the heavens take notice. I believe when people put the need of others before themselves, 
when they give more than they have, when they go out of their way to give a smile to someone else
that really is the time When Angels Dance.
