    Jane, I wish I could sit right down with her and hear all she had to say about her 100 years of life! Not only is she adorable...she is downright inspiring. I only hope that I can still see to put my lipstick on in a straight line and not have it plastered all over my face!!

    My grandfather lived to be 92 and I use to think about all the changes he saw in his lifetime and I found my self amazed. I can only hope that I can see half of what he saw before I am laid to rest.

a different kind of pop art

* dad , daddy , pa , papa, pop *my pop is the father of six girls and a self taught artist. One of my first memories of his art is a mural he did in charcoal on a large red wall in our living room. It was a stagecoach with horses, it seemed to jump off the wall into the room.  I loved it. He also created  a barn 'look' on the second floor landing of our house. Complete with split rail fencing used for the stair rail - the only thing between us and certain death was termite ridden timber. But, it looked fabulous! Our house had only one bathroom and with seven females in the house including my Mom, you can imagine how my Dad felt the need to make his mark (so to speak) in the one room he really had no control over. T hus, began our summer spent retrieving rocks from the river; for what would become the most famous bathroom in town. It was a good size room with a long wall of mirrors, a claw foot tub, the essential toilet and a window.  Pop's idea was t...
