Ok, sometimes I get these weird ideas. I don’t know what made me think of it this morning, but I found myself remembering a painting by Andrew Wyeth, “Christina’s World.” Do you guys know it? To me, it evokes feelings of conflict; I get the sense that this is a young girl feeling simultaneously trapped in the middle of nowhere, & tenderly affectionate of her home. Anyhoo, somehow that train of thought derailed into thinking it would be fun to sort of re-create the painting. But, alas, I was all alone. So I resorted to Horsey. He’s been around for the grandkids for years, & today he graciously submitted to being my “Christina”. No, it isn’t exactly alike, but it was fun & got me out of my box…or maybe out of my mind Here’s the original with my copy-cat below.

This Palmetto Bank really has fallen on hard times. Or, rather, hard times have fallen on it , in the form of bulldozers. Derrick caught some of the demolition action.
