Every artist dips his brush in his own soul,
and paints his own nature into his pictures.~ Henry Ward Beecher
American abolitionist and social reformer
Born on: 24th June 1813Porte Ponderings:
Rarely is there such a perfect day as this one at Lake Erie. The lake was almost motionless, flat and quiet in a heat wave. Other local beaches had been posted as “No swimming” due to high e-coli, but Port Glasgow beach was still open. Early morning walks were the best time to avoid the heat. Rickie and I enjoyed our morning walk to the marina.

Christmas Eve is almost here. I’m looking forward to my family being here for our traditional Christmas Eve Gathering. Afterwards everyone heads home so Santa can find their trees and leave wonderful gifts. Including books.
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. ❤
