Happy Easter

I framed the art piece Paul brought me from England.   It is a stained glass template from the church in Yelverton, England.  A watercolor and pencil painting/drawing of Mary and Joseph.  It fits nicely above my stairs.

I also built a 6' wide bookcase and moved some of my favorite books up here.  Been enjoying a book of Sewanee lore about teaching and nature, (despite it's glorification of hunting) ... "Wedding the Wild Particular" by R. Benson.

The view of the rain and fog was irresistible this afternoon.   It was in the low to mid 50ºs today, but I had a fire going and the sliding glass door open... hissing of the fire in one ear, patter of rain in the other.  A nice backdrop to learning this Handel suite which I'm just loving.

The sunset was spectacular.

I expect to move my webcam out beyond the trees to get an unobstructed view of the cove, and better timelapse videos.

Not to be a 'nit picker' (which of course I am) but your new M & J template appears to be leaning a bit to the right. Small shim on bottom right edge should do it.....

No, camera angle, I know how to use a level. Anyway it was sitting on the floor and now it's mounted.

OK.... let's see it as now mounted and "level".

Sorry, I have to photograph it at an angle because of reflections from windows. As we know, reflections look sillyand amateurish in photographs.
