OMG Fred, I marvel at your imagination!  What a beautiful dragon!  I love his colors, his wings and the little tear at the corner of his eye.  Did you do that rock (or should I say dentist's table) with the credit card method?

Well this time last week I was bragging about how warm it was and how I had the windows open and today we woke to this! Welcome to February in Arkansas! Hopefully the promised freezing rain will not materialize.  It will be all gone in a couple of days but it is fun to look at.

The view from my living room today.

Hey Jen, We had one morning like this, just beautiful. Now here is proof positive that there are bears in space,  this is a photo taken by the Hubble Space telescope of the gas and dust of the Carina Nebula some 7500 light years away from earth.

Well Jen I would love to see at least one more snow this winter but none is forecast,but you did give me an idea maybe it would be appropriate to send a couple of musical bears to Mars

Jen you are right it was a Saxophone,   wow! Bears in Vegas on Mars hmmmm.    I would consider a Bear playing a Trumpet first so he could Herald in the rest of the players .. A Herald is A person who carries or proclaims important news; a messenger.  A bear that gives a sign or indication of something to come; a harbinger:   oh how I love to write...

Fred,  I loved the bear in the Carina Nebula, I downloaded the picture to draw lines around what I saw.  MY GOODNESS so many bears.   I believe it should be called Ursidae Nebula because of all of the Ursus within it.    What a beautiful Nebula.

Jen, your snow photo is pretty.  Snow is so deceivingly pretty.  Hope you didn't get iced in and that your power stays on.  We don't went you to freeze.

Fred, so there is Bear Rock  out there.  You knew it all along.  That's one interesting photo.

Marsha, it's like you were play where's Waldo only it was bears and not Waldo.  You have a sharp eye.

Marsha I haven't taken many pictures because not much of interest but here is one of my poor gnomes freezing in the snow. Before my art teacher got sick she and I started working with clay and had a lot of fun as we knew nothing! These are a couple of my gnomes. Most I made for other s and sold but the big one I made we we were in Georgia for a while and the other i made here. there is a third you can't se and the big mound is a mushroom I bought! I haven't made anything for a couple of years as my teacher got too sick to fire them and now we don't have a kiln.
