Yesterday Michael and I took a stroll down to the bridge to see the river. It was peaceful, not too slimy and slow for October. But wait! What is that?? Someone has been stacking rocks! Now that is a peculiar way to spend one’s time. Good thing I got the photo yesterday, because this morning […]
Happy Centennial, Kaweah P.O.!
The party was well attended. Very well attended! Here is one area – isn’t that the cutest little building with the grandest oak tree? I only brought art with Three Rivers as the subject. Almost everything Kaweah Post Office sold. The stick is where the mailbag hangs so the horse-riding mail carrier can grab it […]
First Saturday, September 4, “Harvest”
Ever heard of The Cort Gallery? It is at 41881 Sierra Drive (river side of the highway) in Three Rivers. It is a little hard to see because the trees obscure the building, but it is worth the time to find. Gary Cort designed this building with rotating walls that swing open to the outside. […]

She has been accepted […]
Peculiar sights #8
Here is a saxophone player: I don’t know what this guy is doing, but he certainly is peculiar.
This one will last!
Do you remember my posting about the fat girl inside screaming to be left alone? Now I have the solution to those flimsy chairs: These redwood chairs are made locally by Bob Kellogg of Three Rivers and when I sit in this, my legs stick out like Alice in Wonderland! It is my throne, and sometimes […]
What’s That Smell?
For eleven years I have been walking around Three Rivers. The spring is the best time, and this is the best spring I remember, ever! No hot spells, regular rain, tons of flowers in both quantity and variety. . . who could ask for more? Each year, there is a wonderful fragrance that arrives in […]
Redbud Festival Review
The Arts Alliance of Three Rivers did an outstanding job of organizing, publicizing and managing the Redbud this year! The music was just right, the booth size was generous, the signs leading the public in were visible and consistent in color and design, the vendors had high quality products, the food choices were plentiful, the parking […]
