Would you know, please...........?

The painting in the picture above....

.

It is a poster, from a French Museum...

.

Would anyone know the name of the painting?

.

Or how to go about finding out, the name of that painting?

.

Without a name, or the name of the painter, it is difficult to go about tracking down a particular picture.

sigh....

No snow........ :-(

No snow.

.

I think it's time to give up on any real snow this winter.

I don't miss having to be shoveled out.  Or walking or driving in ice/snow.  So what am I complaining about???

.

I miss the pristine beauty of snow.  I miss watching it snow, while inside my home.  I miss how snow fall, makes inside seem even more snug and warm and cozy and inviting.  Like a warm blanket around me.

.

I miss those things, about a normal winter, of snow.

.

And it is too late now, to expect any real snow...  So, yes...  I am sad.  About this.  About missing a real northern winter.
.
While apologizing to those who have been deluged with snow...   I still post this entry.   :-)

Do we really get...............?

(Susan Branch's Mini Calendar...Feb.)

Leap Year this year.  February 2016 has the extra day of February 29th.  And as the calendar above says...  We get an extra day.

.

But......  Do we really get an extra day?  Does our lifetime expand, every Leap Year?

.

Every 24 hours, the sun rises and the sun sets.  The sun doesn't care about our calendars.  Or about how we "tell time."  The sun had been rising and setting an awful long time, before any sort of time telling was thought of.  So.............

.

Do we really get an "extra" day, every 4 years?  :-)

.

Not an earth shaking question, I know.  :-)  But the world presents us with so many really earth shaking questions, every day.  Or at least, "The News" tells us it does...  Maybe it would be fun to ponder a tiny, silly, little question for awhile.  

Do we really get an "extra" day, every 4 years?

.

What-cha' think???
