Fishing !

I have fished for as long as I can remember.  Fun Fact: I was born on a fishing trip! My parents, my grandparents, my auntie and my uncle were camping and fishing at Corey Lake, Three Rivers, Michigan (my family lived in Merrillville, Indiana about 2.5 hours from Three Rivers) My mom unexpectedly went into labor on the morning of September 30.  Not being familiar with the area, my dad and my uncle had to hurry up and find a hospital.  Around 7 am that morning I was born at the old Three Rivers Hospital. What a fishing story they all told throughout the years! Do you like to fish? Do you have a fishing story to share? I would love to hear it! I have fished on all of the Great Lakes.  Growing up, we use to spend Summers in  Sioux Lookout , Ontario, Canada. We camped and fished off the grind about an hour from the town. We had all of our fishing and camping gear flown into the camping location by  Floatplane . We rode in by boat. It was a lot of fun. Every day we saw moose, bear, wolves,

Rock Painting

Image
 Hello- I have been a 'Rock Painter' for as long as I can remember. As a young kid, I painted them as Christmas gifts. We used a lot more paper when I was a kid than we do today and people-mostly family- seemed to find my painted rocks most useful as paper weights. As a teenager, I found painting rocks enjoyable when I didn't have anything else handy to paint on. When I was a kid, I painted fun, colorful rocks but as a teenager I painted serious rocks, with serious scenes on them such as old barns and other types of landscape scenes that were embedded in my mind. However you choose to paint a rock is up to you. Give it a try! Fun Fact: Art is good for the mind, the spirit, the body and the soul!!  How the Brain is Affected by Art I'm thinking about placing the rocks that I paint around the city for people to find. Maybe it will make someone's day or at the very least, bring a smile to their face. Maybe a child will find my painted rock and think it's beautiful!
