On Top of the World (slide): Gigi's new swingset


















































Here are a couple of photos of Gigi's birthday present, a new swingset! It took Mommy and Mark about 6 hours to put together on a hot day (with indispensable the help of Auntie Jess who kept Active Girl distracted) but it was worth it--she loves it! Gigi could hardly keep still for one quick (and crude) sketch on Top of the World (slide).

32nd World Wide Sketchcrawl July 23 2011

Here's the 32nd World Wide Sketchcrawl results: I will post drawings from the Tallahassee group who drew at the downtown market and in the Challenger Space Museum as I receive them; first in was Dede Harter's "Lunar Lander" (with the yellow moon background). My sketches are from closer to home (Green Cay Wetlands; "cormorant & gator", "contour drawing of swamp", and "raccoon with firecracker flowers and swamp potato flowers"). Mary Sterner Lawson contributed "Sketchcrawlers at Callenger Space Center", "International Space Station", "Listening to music", "Downtown Market Visitors" and "Dede's cousin".
