This piece is about new beginnings. The end of spring and the beginning of summer. New life in new places. Building nests and fledglings spreading their wings in anticipation of that first flight.

I had the priviledge of watching my grandson graduate from high school last week. What a joy to see him complete 12 years of school successfully. To see one so young and full of life. It gives you faith that things are going to turn out alright. Isn't it amazing how the wheel of time keep on turning. The dreams of one generation really are the reality of the next.

It gives us pause to stop and think about what kind of reality we are dreaming up for the future. Because the buck dosen't stop here. It gets handed down to the next generation and they have to make it stretch a little farther than we did!

That's it! The painting of the month is entitled, "No Vacancy". We're heading to Mexico the first of June so hope to have some southwest flavor for you next month. Until then.......JB
