Had to share this here!

I retired back in Sep 2019. My employer gave me some cash to put towards a painting or photo from a local gallery.

A friend of mine is a professional artist as well as an amazing musician, so I thought who better to commission a painting from?!

After a long wait, he presented me with this original entitled "Bluegrass Mountain". Love it!

Isn't it fine to have friends with talent? Congrats.

Sure is! Actually I think he was more excited about it than I was.

Hi, I think this is a great picture, and your friend has a talent! There are gifted people in this world, wonderful musicians, and they also draw beautifully. How lucky are you to have such a friend!? I'm sure he's also an interesting and good person, right? I also used to draw a long time ago, but then I realized that I have no talent and can't draw what comes to my mind... So I decided to concentrate on collecting paintings, and now I've found some beautiful Claude Monet paintings on this site -- ipaintings.com. I think I'll get these paintings soon.

Good work all 'round.

D'ya think Bluegrass Mountain is part of the same range* as the Big Rock Candy Mountains?

* = no pun ... intentional or otherwise.
