[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 622341, member: 17461"] Far from an art collector, Strength! :O) I do volunteer in an art gallery here. A friend knew the artist. She needed a little more help during her high season. (The artist ~ a woman ~ is attaining celebrity status around here ~ very cool to be affiliated!) Anyway, the friend and I are like, splitting a position to help out. It's been alot of fun. I am hoping to do it next year, too. You are right about the brilliant colors, about the beautiful things the gallery and the garden contain, and about the sun, Strength. So many different kinds of people from all over the country (and the world ~ mostly Germany, Norway, England). This is something very different for me. It was part of this whole thing, really. There were so many bad things happening in our family. I decided to do what I could, whatever little things I could do, to make the world better. Sort of like tying a knot. All at once, people started asking me to do things. It is quite extraordinary that this should be so, really. So, I've helped feed rescued cats (and fallen in love with them), I've taken a Bible study (first time, for me), finally joined the Book Club down here and gone to lunch with the ladies, and...started volunteering at the gallery. It must be true what they say, Strength. When we say "yes", our worlds change. Cedar Oh, and I got to help with a political "Meet & Greet for one of the local political candidates. And all this happened Strength, after difficult child daughter was hurt at the end of November. Strange, huh? :O) [/QUOTE]
