my daughter hannah took this photo

me at the book arts bazaar.

she says i look happy!

yep.

today my friend catherine came to mind

you know how that is--

so i went over to her blog

and she'd posted twice after a long hiatus

(while she went to school).

and she has some poems you might like to check out.

i love what she's been doing!

this morning

i watched the pesky chipmunk

who lives too close.

it took the bait

peanut butter.

so i took chipmunk in the have-a-heart trap
in the driving rain

to a new home on the kip tract.

fare well.

i worked on some new prints yesterday

as well as beginning excavations

on the work table.

spring fever.

as the temperature drops

approximately 30 degrees today.

several pages went brown and blue
an idea brewing.
