Those fields are stunningly beautiful.  I think many of us see sights like that one as a sight for sore eyes, after a wild winter.

Hi Bob "RealMan" Timm 

Yep I get that. I love this view..but interestingly the flowers have no scent. And sitting there would be even better if no one else were around to interrupt!

Hi Kathy Streib - I so enjoy seeing them and also sharing them with others. The photos are pretty good but it's hard to capture the full beauty. NOthing like seeing them in person.

Hi Gwen Banta 

Yes, after I left the corporate world of HR, my wife and I owned an art gallery in Cambridge, 2002 - 2004 (I also started in real estate at that time). We closed because we had decided to make the move to California in early 2005. We still collect art, and enjoy visiting galleries and museums, and have gotten to know a number of artists here. We would love to have a gallery again...perhaps some day. But it's a pretty low profit margin business and leasing retail space is so darn expensive.

I'll check out Sondra's post.

Sondra Meyer:

 Fortunately, retail space costs seem to be going down some.  Or at least it is in my part of Colorado.    Enough so that I am wishing I would have signed a shorter lease. 


What kind of art do you and your wife collect?
