Coffee Break #34 - Watching the snow melt.

For NY??

to get across to Canada

Yes, but we got passcards, cheaper and can be used in the US ports/Island. You just can't go to Spain or France with them you'd need to get a passport then. Passcards are $45.

We have 'enhanced' drivers licenses in NY that are good for Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. I'll be getting them soon.

the last time I was there a photo drivers license was good enough.. boy do things change

we have enhanced DL in NJ already.. wonder if it is good enough

Yeah, just highway to the exit, then they have a parking lot.

maybe maybe not.. but thanks for the info

More temptation...

A few more.

Another.

One more.

Love that dark purple one, that's the first time I've seen one that dark, I think.

Beautiful shots of the orchids, Victor! Great photography!

Thanks, Louise. Hard to take bad shots there!

Oh yeah? I could do it quite well! LOL

Hee hee!

Beautiful Victor!

I just signed up for my next five Botanical Illustration classes. They will keep me busy through July. They are: Plant Morphology, Drawing Trees, Drawing the Perennial Border, Drawing Roses and Watercolor I. I'm so excited!!

Here's a crude photo of the first two of eight rhody leaves I'm working on now.

I am amazed by your talent.
I can't draw to save my life.

How about going into landscape architecture?

Looks great, Harper! Will Nudes in the Garden be on the list?? ^_^

Only you would ask that Victor?

^_^ I could have asked if she will be drawing woodies. ^_^

I've mentioned this brand of chips before, but I am having this flavor now and it's great! Having it with a glass of pinot noir.

Yup! They're the best! Multi-grain and olive are good too--Columbus loves the multi-grain one--you should see him grab it from me! LOL

Yes, I like them too. And sweet potato and jalapeno.

they look good, and they have lime
one of my favorite chips are the tostido hint of lime, it's hard to close the bag on those

I'll have to try Sweet potato--I'm not a fan of jalapeno-anything--it's an old woman thing...LOL!

Same with these.

harper those are very very impressive

Yes Harper, I meant to say that too, until Victor distracted me

chips on the brain - or naked gardening?

heehee
I actually plan on making DH a magazine with photos from the garden...

Yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

Except stick people, I can't draw a thing--go with it Harper.

Oh boy can we watch?

Thanks folks! Victor, I've done nudes before, I've even been the nude, but never did nudes in the garden. That's an idea, I guess. Here's a nude dude.

Jen, I had thought about landscape architecture. Maybe one day. There's so many to choose from. For now, it's gonna be botanical illustration. I want to go farther and take the nature and science illustration courses too, but money is prohibitive. We'll see how things go and I'll take things one at a time.

Those chips look yummy!

Any dudettes??

Very professional, Harper! Those look like they could just come to life right off the page. I think you've found a great fit there! Please keep sharing your work.

There's an organic store near me that carries those chips, I'll have to check them out

I just bought these at BJ's, they are yummy good!
