Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing all visitors a happy weekend!

It's freezing cold here today, raining non stop, and the heating isn't working, so I'm well wrapped up to write this blog! Yesterday it was warm and sunny, and I was able to go for a walk down to the Rhine and through our little town. People were enjoying the sun:

I love the ancient town walls:

There are always ships, barges and boats to see:

One lonely gull:

Some of the leaves have turned red:

Parking space is always hard to find!

The old tower covered in red leaves used to be the customs house. The officers had a great view from the roof of all ships passing by and collected their taxes:

A bench for weary walkers:

Our town book box, all books are free to take:

And after all that walking I  earned my cappuccino:

The sky very early in the morning:

Here you can see a planet, too, but I've forgotten which one it is:

And this is a painting made for one of the LB lessons from Melanie Rivers. Mine doesn't look anything like Melanie's, and I'm not happy with it, but that's the way it is.

And this is a painting I made a couple of weeks back. Now I have altered it so I can link to Neet's in gear challenge at AJJ. I added a lady - the same one used in the painting above - and a steampunk tag which I made many years back. I think the man on the right likes the lady!

More early morning photos from my balcony:

And some funnies / thinkies:

Have a great weekend, take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by!

TGIF

Hi Everybody!

Hope you are all doing well. This week has gone by so quickly again , I never seem to catch up with things these days.

Today it's time for Gillena's AFF and Nicole's FFO, so once again I have some faces old and new to share.

This cow was stenciled last week with the left over blue paint from another project. My mother always called me cow-face when I was a child, so I took my revenge by collecting pictures and ornaments etc with cows and had them all around my room. And today my place is still full of cows, large and small:

M messy work table:

This cow is at the butcher's in our little town:

And this lovely face is my dear friend Heike when we went out for a meal this week:

This is an altered photo I made - we have a lot of Herons in the streams and at the Rhine:

A journal page:

Another altered photo showing Erika, a very distant cousin:

And I love this stamp:

This is an altered paper bag filled with photos which I sent to a cousin. This is me:

My cousin is on the left, I'm on the right:

Some thinkies / funnies:

I hope you enjoyed facing up to my faces of fact and phantasy.

I am linking to Gillena's AFF and

Nicole's FFO.

Have a great day, take care,

And thanks a lot for coming by!

New challenge at Tag Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Just a short post today. I need to show my tag for The new challenge at Tag Tuesday, and this time dear Sandie is hosting. She has a theme eveyone will like - A form of transport. Choose whatever means of transport you like for this theme! I have some vintage cars:

And this form of transport is also quite common at this time of year:
