Spring!

Nee Mama's Bluebells and our Solomon Seal

Progress is slow these spring weeks, but still coming along.

The violets have already come and gone.

Easter Baskets

First day of spring -- the beard goes!

More (almost) spring scenes!

Spring's Coming!!!

Bridal Wreath

Flowering Almond

Quince

These white irises were blooming by the mailbox when we brought Sam home 16 years ago.

We moved them to Winterville from Franklin Street.

Happy 16th Mr. Sam!

Strawberry Shortcake

The House Ghost

Nice weekend after a long week.

Friday evening, we said goodbye to the boys (and Dad), drove through Tiny Town and Sweet City to meet our most spontaneous friends, TD and M at a cabin on Lake Russell: games -- wine -- good conversation -- much laughter.
Finished the blog for the new paintings. Check it out! http://jwallacepaintings.blogspot.com/
Watched Being John Malchovich. Visited with Paula. Slept a lot. Toasted the beginning of "Sam's 16th Birthday Week." Now I'm going to put the wire on the art and call it a night.
