It is aliiiiiive!

Hey, after a rather longish respite from this posting business I think it is time to add a little note or something. 27.66& decline in readership over the last 30 days, average time on site of 8 seconds. Not too spiffy. I don't think I will get the Pulitzer this year. But I do have loyal readers, I do! Thanks to both of you.

You would think that someone would actually comment on the Blog itself instead of the content as happens sometimes. No one has ever said, "Gee, John, what a dweebish Blog you got there", or "Your blog gave me the strength to return to school and become a Forest Ranger, Thank you for all your inspirational words." Oh well.

Here is a quick drawing made using a water soluable graphite pencil received from an art supply dealer as a free sample. I sent them an e-mail and they sent me a free pencil. Wow.
This is a defunct mexican restaurant in my town in the back part of the Hardware store. Had pretty good food; apparently authentic stuff, not your chain restaurant Tex-Mex fare. Nice green paint job.
