NONNIE'S PHOTO A DAY, Day 189: My Wall of Americana


my Americana wall
flags, home, alphabet, apples

This masterpiece was done by cousin Cheryl.

Above them is a flag painted by a teacher colleague 
of my cousin Rosemary.

That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether ...
