    Ah but at our age, we all know that one cannot buy love but on the other hand, one can purchase a considerable amount of attention. :)

    Gee, Lon. All you did was post a pic of a fellow resident and you got folks trying to hook you up.

    Hell, at our age, we can remember attention we never got!

    My first wife painted in oils and sold many of her works. Two of them are on my apartment walls. Linda saw them and loved them. I will take pictures and post at later time. Linda will remain just a friend.

    Yes we occasionally have a glass of wine together and visit. She has a walker just like mine.

    Nothing unusually about neighboring seniors seeing paintings on each others walls, however, should talk of a ceiling mural emerge .........:oops:

    @Lon Tanner
    The painting is beautiful and the colours look vibrant. How old is the painting?
    The framing looks good too.
    Though I do and will stand by my belief that an artist is appreciated when he is no more. Although, Linda proves me wrong!!
