"Double Window" by Lou Messa

One of the few original works of art Shane and I have purchased is this piece we bought several years back. It is a watercolor by a Virginia artist named Lou Messa. I'm a huge fan of Andrew Wyeth, and this piece reminds me of his work. We bought it at an Annapolis gallery after visiting with it several times. There are few pieces Shane and I agree on, but this was one. Sorry the photo isn't the best quality, but it was taken with my iPhone. You can see the iPhone in the reflection of the glass in the photo.

Florida House Update

Earlier this week, I posted about a forclosed house we looked at in
Florida. I guess we weren't the only ones that thought that was a
good deal, because someone already has a contract on it. It is just
as well, as that house was very remote, and we need to save more money
before we buy a house. I have a feeling there will be other bargains
to be had in Florida down the road.
