I do adore you all - such fun that we can meet up on our blogs to continue the conversation. <br /><br />Andrea, that photo of me with the rings was taken in the Pyrenees in France in 2004 - I was admiring those beautiful purple flowers and Jeff snapped the evidence! <br />I find the subject of home and memory to be so so rich: it pulls at us, haunts us, delights us. Andrea you paint a vivid heart-pulling description of Northern Calif. thank you for that!<br /><br />Vickie: we gave a goldsmith couple (here on the Olympic Peninsula) a very rough sketch/cartoon of two loons with necks intertwined and they crafted the rings - (much much better than what I drew!). <br /><br />Robin, you crack me up. You have such a clever way with words!<br /><br />I'm super thankful that you all are in my life! xoxo FrancesFrances Clements Fawcetthttp://thedelightdetective.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4702990152006085870.post-60268549490484695582012-11-06T16:17:42.170-05:002012-11-06T16:17:42.170-05:00That was a fun post, Frances could be a writer as ...That was a fun post, Frances could be a writer as well as a painter.

On a more considered note, I loved the interpretation of your Loon in your artwork. How inspiring to be taking memories and building more life stories from them - Bliss!

I'm also very happy to learn more about Maine and to experience your love for the place. I was there this summer and it took a bit of time for it to grow on me. <br />As for your question, what memories are we holding ; I've been in France so long, that I'm in an almost constant state of yearning for home for the golden hills of Northern California, the fog creeping up over the hills, the sparkling sunshine, raw beaches, singing seals and the health loving, friendly people. <br />Dorothy of the Wizard of Oz was right, there really is no place like home.andrea wedellhttp://www.gallerywedell.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4702990152006085870.post-55580394560149678582012-10-16T17:05:32.422-04:002012-10-16T17:05:32.422-04:00I love the rings!!!!!!I love the rings!!!!!!Vickie Martinhttp://www.vickiemartin.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4702990152006085870.post-83841413700310314982012-10-16T17:03:55.385-04:002012-10-16T17:03:55.385-04:00Thanks Suzanne - I took a little trip down memory ...Thanks Suzanne - I took a little trip down memory lane (actually Butterfield Lane) as I wrote this this piece. ; ) Frances Clements Fawcetthttp://thedelightdetective.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4702990152006085870.post-64802116323875293212012-10-16T10:29:28.574-04:002012-10-16T10:29:28.574-04:00This blog post reads like a poem.
