My "paint the Living Room" project is finally complete, but it took a lot longer than I expected. There were a lot of nooks and crannies that required cutting, in addition to roller painting. I love the yellow that I chose, but I don't think those photos quite do justice to the true color. It looks like the yellow seen in historic Colonial era houses. The two shorter walls and walls up the staircase are all white, and the two longer walls are yellow, except for the trim, which is also white.

My muscles and joints are very sore from all of the physical activity, so I've been offline while I've been working on this project. I'm behind on artwork, blog posts, approving comments, and emails. One thing led to another, as is often the case with a project, so now I'm also in the process of throwing out junk I've accumulated over the years, so I'll probably be offline for this week, and hope to resume my normal activities next week. (I had hoped to make this week's T-Day Party, but it looks like that won't be the case.)

I saw a few trees with leaves on them fallen down like this one. This year's storms have been hard on this walking space.

This week's Three Muses challenge was "Stairs."

I created this using GIMP 2.10.10.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

I took these photographs at Southport Park in Fairfield, CT this past week.

This was the first time I came here. There were a few signs of Spring growth. I'll have to return here when the trees are fully leafed.

There is a lovely Streamside Trail that I don't usually walk on, so I enjoyed this Winter visit. I also liked the stairs in the woods.

This is 3 of 6 posts of photographs that I took in the Ash Creek Open Space walking area in Fairfield, CT this past week.

These are some of the sights here. Someone brought their dog to play chase. Winter has been unusually mild, so there is still some green in the grass in spots. Most of the boats have been pulled from the water, but a few remain. I didn't take photos of it, but they cut down a bunch of trees for some unknown reason. I always saw birds going into those trees.

These are some photographs that I took at Mill Hollow Park in Fairfield, CT about two weeks ago.

I thought the boat scene conveyed the image of waning Summer. During my walk I spotted a Great Blue Heron. I like wooden stairs in the woods, so I snapped a photo of the ones behind a house.
