We also got the one about planting a window garden. <BR/>I remember my little son coming home from school, talking about water lilies he wanted to plant.

I will definitely go back to Paris one day and luxuriate in the surroundings.

They were very <EM>avant-garde</EM> in their time, and now we can see how lovely their paintings are. I have been to the Louvre and seen original Monets as well, but I think after seeing van Gogh paintings in person, he is now my favorite. The vibrancy of his paintings is astonishing.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06979114933441527890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14919964.post-40354374022661851562008-05-07T16:55:00.000-07:002008-05-07T16:55:00.000-07:00I can draw . . . a little . . . a tiny little.
