I bought this sweet little landscape at a "living estate sale" last weekend. It's about 4"x5", oil on masonite. It's signed "Olva".
It reminds me of my grandfather's farm, near San Antonio. I can remember his barn full of corn, his chickens, the pond, and the smokehouse. I loved his homemade sausage. And my grandmother's cookies and bread pudding, and everything else she cooked. Those were sweet days.
I'm hoping that I am creating some memories for my grandchildren too, which is why we play Candyland and go to the wading pool and play Jenga and do the Hokie Pokie.
Today is a good day to build memories.
