"The Almond Tree" 5x7 oil on copper Sold.  Thanks.

   I always admire this Almond tree while I drink my coffee in the morning.

It is a very young tree being pampered by the hotel gardener.  

"Prickely Flowers" 5x7 oil on copper Thanks!

  These are an interesting variety of flowers which have spikes

on stems.  

    Here is Candy and I during a suprise birthday party

put on by Candy for Ron.  They had trouble getting

Ron to his party.  He was apparently tired.  So I asked them if 

they needed me to get him.  Candy said, Yes!  I went to 

Ron's room.  I said, "Ron come quick.  Candy fell down and can't

get up.  I need your help!"  He put on pants, ran out of his room.

I decided I had better run to show him the urgency.  He ran.  I ran

past the porch where the band was playing.  He was greeted by

his friends who clapped and wish him Happy Birthday.  Candy

had two bands instead of one by accident.  Both bands sort of battled

to play.  Food had been catered.  Cake was great.  Dancing was 

fun.  The funniest part of the party to me was watching a tourist Lenny,

who had brought many percussian instruments with him from America, sit

and play with the band.

      Who brings a tamborine to Jamaica with all kinds of other instruments?  Lenny!

He has so many surprises for the rest of us.  Sometimes he acts like a waiter taking drink

orders.  Then he is sitting in with a band playing.  We all like Lenny.

     There is Ron dancing with Candy to his right (Ron in green shirt).  The owners of the hotel are

on the left.  Lenny playing some sort of wood thing banging on the table on the left.  Whatever

instrument he was playing was almost as loud as the drum!  So funny.

   Here are a few friends of Rons. Many of his friends live her in Jamaica.  Lenny the 

percussionist is on the left in white shirt.  They served rum punch.  What a great day.  

I painted so hard I didn't even get a swim in today!  Have a good night.  Hope you enjoyed

my adventure.
