Description If Lawrence Welk came back from the grave, and he were to see this, he may
be inclined to exclaim: ...a Waterfall! Waterfall! Waterfall! A bad joke, AND
if anybody out there gets it, YOU WILL BE MY FRIEND for LIFE!! No, I'm hardly a
LW fan; my dad was. His reruns can be seen on PBS (believe it or not) and watching
them would seem just as surreal as the painting. Sort of, not entirely.

NP. I'm doing some abstracty watercolour and found you when surfing about to see what others were doing. I enjoyed your gallery and have added a watch.

I thank you sincerely, Sarah. We just arrived in Seattle and have located the Bed & Breakfast that will provide us lodging for the next 3 nights. So...
I'm a little tired. We are waiting for a visit from our son, who lives here.

THANKS Kiki!!! I appreciate your kind words.
And yes, click on the magnifying glass, and you're
apt to find faces, fish, a big bird (maybe) and an
Aboringinal Fellow's head at the bottom. Good eye!!!

VEry NiCe, also the sound of the falls you linked to me.
I took a boom box up to Lake Superior once and recorded
the waves slapping the shore (albeit) gently. VEry SoOthInG!!!

THANKS Bear, as always, I appreciate your comments:

Back when I had easy access to broadcast quality recording equipment I would record hours of such things and play them while working.Β  It helped hugely with stress and to keep my synesthesia from interfering with my work.

Now I have learned work with my synesthesia instead of against but I miss all my tapes

What we resist, persists. What we accept {or acknowledge), transforms. From my book on
Mindfulness, which I use on my anxiety. Thanks Bear!

I don't know Lawrence Welk..but I shall say" Oh a waterfall" because a waterfall is one of my watery favourites..The spray shooting up over the personalised tree pieces face sets the scene so beautifully as it flies over the rapids....A boat full of the most amazing characters...Hope the bird doesn't have to fly!!

As per what was erased yesterday Tricia, I was explaining that Lawrence Welk was
a famous band leader in this country ~ esp during the 50s and 60s ~ and he had some
individual musicians who would sing, play their instrument etc etc after which Maestro Welk
would exclaim : " A Wonderful, A wonderful...!!!" He was German I believe! Not many deviants
would get this joke...a dumb joke for certain. Read down the responses to the fellow who
said "Bubbles." He knew what I was talking about;LW had a bubble machine, always going
behind his orchestra. My dad just loved it. It must have been Saturday night. Bath night!

He would love to say:
"Start the bubble machine!"
Like I said: Seeing him now on our public television station, it all seems so surreal!"
