satguru Forum Champion Registered: Thu Feb 17 2000 Posts: 8090 Loc: Kingsbury London UK	I had one of my many dreams of amazing places and this had a row of shops somewhere in America I remembered clearly enough to make them out of balsa wood. There were bushes above them all but most have fallen out since. I've seen some real places with plants like that after but didn't remember any before.

tellywellies Forum Champion Registered: Sat Apr 13 2002 Posts: 5473 Loc: South of England	About 30 years ago we were in a pub. Paintings that were for sale hung on the walls. We liked this one and ended up buying it. Having little knowledge of art, we weren't to know that it came from what sounds like an art factory and similar paintings abound throughout the World. No value at all . Nonetheless, it is real paint put on by somebody artistic. A pleasing picture that holds memories of better times for us, so it still hangs on the wall. _________________________ Error: Keyboard not attached. Press any key to continue..

jordandog Forum Champion Registered: Tue Apr 17 2007 Posts: 5097 Loc: Ohio USA	I love them all! Gary, I immediately thought of Garrison Keillor and 'Lake Wobegon Days': "Every Advent we entered the purgatory of lutefisk, a repulsive gelatinous fishlike dish that tasted of soap and gave off an odor that would gag a goat. We did this in honor of Norwegian ancestors, much as if survivors of a famine might celebrate their deliverance by feasting on elm bark. I always felt the cold creeps as Advent approached, knowing that this dread delicacy would be put before me and I’d be told, "Just have a little." Eating a little was like vomiting a little, just as bad as a lot." _________________________ The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.

lilyalli Prolific Registered: Fri Apr 20 2007 Posts: 1038 Loc: Norfolk UK	This is an engraving by my 88 year old mother which she did a few years ago. A bit worn and faded now, but a definite likeness to my old cat.

BurgGurl Forum Champion Registered: Wed Dec 03 2003 Posts: 9455 Loc: Virginia USA	Tredici, I'd love to know more about your photo.... And yes, that "Dry Run" photo is very clever! Personally, I'd love it if this subject could carry over for another week so everyone has a chance to find/post more photos like these! I am still deciding which one I will place here. _________________________ >^..^< "The big yellow one is the sun."

Unfortunately it was one of those without information or explanation leaving each person to form their own conclusions, I guess. This display is a bit more "traditional".

BTW, did anyone notice that the pub painting and the painting by my grandmother were eerily similar? _________________________ We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.
