A Mini Painting ~ All I could muster up with Back Pain ~ for Paint Party Friday



Magical Rainbow after the Rain Storm on Cape Ann MA for SkyWatch Friday and Weekly Top Shot



'ArtMuse Dog' in Her Perch' ~ 'All's Well in Her World' ~ for Camera Critters



Sights of Summer on Cape Ann MA for Weekend Reflections



Well folks, those of you who have struggled with lower back pain know it takes awhile to heal. Also how it drains one of energy and leaves little in reserve. Managed to catch up on 'house chores' and put together receipts for travel insurance and go to the doctors and little walks with ArtMuse. Gratefully, also made it to my 'gentle yoga' class. My poor Photography Gallery has been neglected and that is next on the list.  That is the news for now.

Wishing you the best in each day. xxooo

    I love all your shots. I'm a fan of any rainbow, and I'm taken with the lime green color in the rowboat shot. I hope that you get a little relief soon with your back pain.
