Day 10: "Artsy" Friends

We've always had unique friends and many artist friends through the years...mostly due to Roger's previous career as a leather artist for over 30 years. Our neighbor and friend for 30 years, Gary Moss, is a visual artist. Gary has always been someone who I can call for help when Roger is out of town (he is also a great cook and will feed me great suppers) and he knows he can also call on me for help when needed.

Gary has had a fascinating painting career...we have a number of original oil paintings and some prints. Today I spent the day with Gary helping to write a proposal for a project to paint Minnesota's North Shore (of Lake Superior). I really like it when I have a skill that can be put to use to help out a friend and I always learn bunches about art and painting around Gary.
