Full Page Sketches

One of the artists on the old wetcanvas always did all twenty-six items for the Scavenger Hunts on one page.  It was always fun looking through them to find/hunt the items.  I thought I would put a few on the page today.  

You can click on the image to make it a bit larger.

Number 4 thin, chain on the lamp and Number 5 thick, the lamp post/brace
Number 6 round, golf ball
Number 7 not round - card reader to transfer from SD card to computerNumber 8 simple - pencil sharpener
Number 8 slow - me
Number 9 simple - pencil sharpener
Number 10 man made - wooden box from Peru with paintings under glass
Number 11 flower - Veterans Day poppy

These were done with a Pilot ballpoint pen in the regular large page sketchbook.

Our day has been sort of weird.  Neither Gene or I can get our brains in gear.  Must be something in the air or we are just old.  He is going on a trike ride so maybe that will help.  I will ride the stationary bike.  The Longhorns will be out of town this week.  Playing a tournament in Houston on the weekend and Sam Houston State tomorrow night.  In Houston they will play Tennessee, LSU, and UCLA.

Internet is crazy again today.  Upload speed is pretty good but otherwise slow on the transfer of info!  Some folks have their Starlink.  I need to check on ours.

I remember the pages with all 26 items. Those were fun to examine. Hopefully riding the bikes will help stimulate your brains. I haven't done much exercise for a while. I was doing an exercise tape a few weeks ago and did something that really screwed up my right knee and leg for a while. It is finally getting back to normal, but I'm taking it slow.

A friend of mine told me that she thinks she has long term covid problems - that some days, she has no energy to do anything and can't seem to think well. I thought that was just old age :)

Bag Blog, hey, that's a good idea to blame Covid. We think we might have had it way back at the beginning the month before the first shutdown. Then we were vacinnated and boosted. My blood pressure is higher now and I take medication for that. Hmmm.

Jennifer Rose, thanks for making me feel better!

R's Rue, you are always so kind, thanks. :-)

Joan, I had fun with the full page of sketches. Hope you knee gets better. We seem to take one step forward and one back. Thanks.
