Aunt Helen is turning 99 tomorrow.  I found a photo of the farm where she grew up and used it to paint this for her birthday card.  I hope it brings memories of nice sunny days for her.  She has a sunny personality and a wonderful smile.  Happy Birthday Aunt Helen!

Next to the Kirkwood city hall there is an area dedicated to memorials for veterans with nice landscaping and benches surrounding them. These Hydrangea bushes were in full bloom and just beautiful all around the Vietnam marker.  It reminded me of a small version of the wall.  A beautiful reflective stone carved with names that should be remembered.
