Craig Shares His Latest Nostalgic Acrylic Painting Progress, Vlog

 


First of all I am really excited to say welcome to a new subscriber from Japan. They took the time out to make a comment and we just wanna welcome them and say how thrilled we are to know that someone from a completely different country across the world is interested in our channel content. We would love to know more about Japan and even visit there. Unfortunately due to our physical challenges Craig and I can visit through things like Google earth but not on an actual plane. That's why there are so many great YouTube videos and blogs where people share their lives from other countries. For folks like us who can't literally travel I can virtually travel.

And thank you to all of the other subscribers it's hard to believe, that we're up to 783 people. And it definitely helps if you're feeling like it, to like comment share and subscribe to our YouTube channel and any other social media sources.

Today's video is primarily about the progress of Craig's latest acrylic painting. When he has been working on for months and months. At the same time it's a bit bit of a collide as we talk about some other things like we were in a log for walking way overrated. So I will definitely be posting the video on both blog pages.

Enjoy

Dangerous Yet Beautiful Weather: Insta Freeze!: Ice Storm Of April 2017

In many countries when we think of April, we think tulips, lilacs, budding leaves, young hatchlings, baby critters, and most of all, for us up here in the north anyway, no more Ice and snow! Well, not this year! We awoke one fine morning to "iceland!" It was amazing to see our van and flower box edges coated in about a half inch or more of ice! As if the rain froze as soon as it hit the surface. Very unique and beautiful. Beautiful, yet treacherous. School was cancelled for two days, along with many other events and businesses. Vehicles were in ditches every where.

There's more, but you will have to check out the video I made below. Did the best I could to capture the beauty of it all.

Justin Hines - Take a Listen, You Won't Be Disappointed

 A fews years back an Ontario tourism promo was on our television. Immediately, I noticed a young fellow who was using a wheelchair singing the the song for the video. When you use one yourself, you notice these things. I was so impressed with his vocals and looked him up on the internet. Within minutes, I became a Justine Hines fan. Bonus, he's from Ontario, Canada!
Justin is a singer, songwriter who is a humble artist that views his different abilities as an opportunity for something positive, not as a negative. Loving that attitude, he is an inspiration to my husband and me and we were thrilled to learn that he is coming to our city in two days!
Just want to spread his life and music around, not just to our friends who may want to see him with us - but to whoever stumbles upon this blog.
Here's to you Justin, We wish you well.
Here are some playlists and web links to learn more about Justin.
