Sunday Trees – June 18, 2023

still standing

This lovely old birch has long lost it’s foliage and most of it’s branches but the trunk is firmly planted into the sand.

Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Nostalgia

thanks to Sue W and GC for hosting weekly prompts https://weeklyprompts.com/2023/06/14/weekly-prompts-wednesday-challenge-nostalgia-2/

As I get older I become more and more nostalgic. All kinds of things remind me of my past. Baking bread at the inn reminds me of our first trip to San Francisco where I first tasted sourdough white bread and my box of buttons reminds me of my mom and her button box. I even created a series of paintings called Needle and Thread that brought back memories of my childhood.
