Balinese Art Lesson



A rare treat...I've recently returned from a wonderful trip to Indonesia and Australia with my brother.  We saw and heard so many different sights, cultures, and languages.  I never thought I would make it to the other side of the world!  This artist in Bali offered art lessons one afternoon on the banjar.  His son and I were his diligent students.  Balinese art is all about flora and fauna...lots of detail.

Ross Chemical Engineering Building, Auburn University



This stately building is located between Samford Hall and the old Student Union building on campus at Auburn University. It has a lovely brick patio and reflecting pool in front. Many students have contemplated knowledge (and romance) on these benches. It holds special memories for my niece and her husband who got engaged here 20 years ago. Happy Anniversary, Amy and Stan!
