It’s that time again folks. It’s time to answer five questions and reveal a little bit more of my life to all y’all. You can join in the fun by going to Cee’s Site Here and answering her questions for yourself. While you are there take a gander at how her other contributors answered.

Here are the questions and my answers:

What is your favorite piece of art? (it doesn’t have to be famous)

Oh, this is a tough one. I work with an artist’s collaborative, called C.cada, and it is just chock full of talented artists. You can see some of their work HERE.

I guess my favorite art changes regularly depending on what I am looking at. I recently obtained a new piece by Charlotte Dorais. It is a watercolor rendering of a spot just South of Perkins Cove in Maine.

Another of my all time favorites is actually a series of paintings by Thomas Cole called “The Voyage of Life.”

What made you smile today?

My prayer time this afternoon made me smile, not  a funny “ha,ha” kind of smile but a quiet contented “Ahh that’s better” kind of smile.

Which place do you recommend as a Must-See? Please state which country, state or providence.

You simply have to see the bathrooms in the YWAM building in Amsterdam.

OK, maybe it is not a must see but they are pretty amazing. I am not sure I would ever go to the bathroom there but it’s a pretty amazing photo op.

Now places you should see:

The City of Delft in South Holland

Longwood Gardens

Complete this sentence: When I was younger I used to….

pretend I was a superhero. I have always wanted to be able to shoot bolts of lightning out of my fingertips, make heavy objects fly through the air or maybe conjure a dragon or two.

Bonus question:  What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

I am so grateful I am over the stomach flu. I am also grateful that I got to visit with my daughter Melanie and my son-in-law James. My daughter Amanda, my mother, my sister and I went out to Melanie and James’ home in Lynn MA to have a belated Christmas dinner.

An American Gothic Christmas

Next week I am looking forward to  having cleaned up from all the snow that is supposed to come in this weekend.
