As I was in the NJ area, I stopped to see my long time childhood friend, Diane!
I stayed quite awhile to catch up with her life and share mine, as well.
She showed me her gorgeous house and yard with her 2 new dogs ( I plan to draw them for her), along with
her husband and twin boys at age 12 now. Wow!

My visit was longer than I expected and I only had 3-4 hours sleep for work for the next day, but she was worth my time!
I surely missed her and love the fact that when I see her, she is still that fun, exciting and
inquisitive Diane, just a little older and much wiser!

Doesn’t she look GREAT?

Even on vacation, I can’t get away from drawing, only because I love, loVE, LOVE to doodle!

Here is a doodle of my son, when he loses about 10 lbs. and gets that dog he always wanted.

My son and I enjoyed the day at Hershey Park for their Springtime opening!
JT took this photo, while coming out of a tunnel on the Sooper Dooper Looper,
and since the camera hit daylight so quickly, the photo overexposed.
We both thought the photo was really cool.
Also, JT took this other photo. He has such a good eye for photography!

I made a recent purchase of all types of assorted colored paper, pencils and more and tried a very distorted cartoon attempt on my son. This is far from being finished and I plan to dabble some more with media, but my goal is to experiment, trying mixed medias and such, along with creating funny cartoons.

Wish me luck, cuz I need it!

Sigh! My husband loves his pastries that he is turning into one.
He goes nuts for donuts!
I’ve GOT to get him to the gym!

I created my own monkey for a small fun project.
