Jan 25 - Feb 3, 2021 Canvas collages and snow

    I have been working on deciding what photos to include in a collage of photos from our RV trips, to put on the wall going down to the basement.  I ended up with a group of 4 large collages, with 4 photos in each, printed on canvas.  They came out very well, the colors are striking, and they look impressive.  So, I guess my task was successful.  It was very hard picking out just 16 photos from all of our travels.  Mountains, oceans, lakes, forests, cities, family, national parks, state parks --north, south, east and west.  And, the hardest part was trying to hang them up, evenly and level.  We even needed to climb the extension ladder.  

   We also had a huge nor'easter snow fall this week.  Probably around 10 inches, but with a lot of wind, so the snow didn't still to the trees.  I think that really helps with not breaking the trees and shutting down the power lines.  So, no daily hiking or walks.  As a result, I am now doing more of Aimee's Jazzercise streaming sessions.  Very good workouts, and I love just walking downstairs and seeing it on our big screen TV.  Peter has even started doing a daily stretches/workout session wit me in the morning, and using the indoor bike and even some weights.  Yeh!

  It's that time of year again when I start thinking of doing the family's tax returns, and am creating tax organizers to give to everyone to help prepare their tax documents.  What fun.

  And, I FINALLY finished my 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle.  This one has taken me a very long time, as many of the pieces were the same color, and I ended up going a lot by just shape.
