As a child I used to sit and draw pictures of the neighbors horses and in the past few years I have fallen in love with the desert so in this little series am combining young love with an adult love.

Today’s Quote

“I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be honorable, to be compassionate. It is, after all, to matter: to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all.”
– Leo Rosten
