Orchard Window by Daniel Garber (1880-1958).
Can you tell I love pictures of people reading? I have a whole wall of these kind of pictures at home. The light through the curtains, the leg tucked under, the page ready to turn — I love all these things about this picture.

When my brother visited my house and we had dial-up he moaned and groaned about us being in the dark ages. I rolled my eyes and said “oh puh-lease” in my mind, if not aloud. Oh how words come back to bite you! We now have DSL at home, but I’m at my sister’s and BIL’s house and they have dial-up. Every syllable Danny used to say to me has come through my mind. I don’t feel free to tie up the phone line reading other blogs so I’ve just popped on to check my email and write an occasional post. I’ll catch up with y’all later!

Lovely!
Wondering if you would have time to post today.
Hope your trip is just delightful and look forward to your telling us about it.
Love the picture!
I get the same thing from kids visiting who hate my dial up connection. But DSL or any other quick connection is not available here in the mobile home park where I live. We don’t have a choice of providers. Rumor has it that our present provider is being bought out and the buyers will make DSL available. It’s to hope, because among other things our music director sends out music files that I can’t open, and sometimes can’t get at all. So he has to make CD’s for me. He would be super delighted if I could get a fast connection.
Have a lovely visit – I so enjoyed mine a couple weeks ago. It’s great to see family.
Enjoy your trip, Carol! Especially YoYo.I love the picture.Janie
