I was thrilled to find out that I have been accepted into the Missouri Watercolor Society's latest National Show. This acceptance means that I have been granted signature membership in the organization. To say that I'm thrilled is an understatement of vast proportions! To have something positive in all this mess is so helpful, and may make this honor even more meaningful.
We live approx. 1/4 to 1/2 mile from where the plane went down in Clarence Center, and we knew people on the plane. Our lives are forever changed by this, as is our tiny town- so reminiscent of the fictional Mayberry. The sound of the excavation trucks wakes us and shakes our home. We see the official cars everywhere- police, sheriff's, medical examiners, government, canine trucks, and others too numerous to mention. If it's midday, that means that media are encamped at just about every intersection, searching for something new to report upon. And they're back at 5, 6, and 11, too. We just hope that every day it will get easier, and that our town will once again be sunny, whether or not the weather cooperates.
