  I was given this pepper plant by my dad. He pulled it up out of his yard and gave it to me. I, however, cannot keep a plant alive. They all suicide in my yard.  I thought this one was destined for the same fate with the dry, hot weather, but it made a rebound after all the recent rain. It even has a small bloom. Maybe it'll survive after all.

  I got to spend some time with friends at the Crowder concert at Funfest in Kingsport, TN. I love this guy's music and his love of Jesus.

I thought that I would use Frisking liquid to make a nice space around the edges of my small paintings. I realize now that I do not like using it. Maybe if I were doing watercolor only, but since I do mixed media work frisking liquid is not feasible. Tape is better.

This picture will go down in history. And seriously, they had smallish women guarding him. Secret service, do better.

 Someone took a shot at former President Trump today. What is this country coming to? This is not how we do things in this country. Are we a third world nations? Just because you do not agree with someone's political view does not mean you have the right to kill them! Things need to cool down before something even worse happens.
