I'll post a few pics from both trips and a couple of my art work.
Retirement life is great. I have been doing some paintings & other art work. Art was my first major in college until I realized I could not support myself & my child very easily in that field. Having hobbies & things to keep you busy is key along with learning to enjoy chillin' & doing nothing sometimes AND that there is nothing wrong with that.

Well hello Ruby Camaro! I wondered where you were. Thank you for having me here to. Those are great pics and I see the snow on the ground so I bet it was cold. I can stay bundled up and warm until my feet get cold then I freeze up! My wife and I went to the Smokey Mts several years ago and it is very pretty there. We stayed 5 days in that area seeing what we could see then went to Dollywood and Gatlinberg and then headed home. We went in late August and we thought with school starting by then that we would not have to fight the crowds but wrong! My goodness! It was jam packed wall to wall cars and people. I would like to go back again but I just don't like to be caught up in the crowds. I guess that is why we have not went anywhere else that is so commercial like that. We have been to Colorado and yellowstone since then and that was great. If you have not been up in that part of the country you should go. It is just fantastic. Well I have rambled enough for now so thanks again and keep smilin Ruby!
