Thanks for your comments on my new painting, too. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475024301146537719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12537204.post-13075454271002323502006-12-05T13:39:00.000-07:002006-12-05T13:39:00.000-07:00The internet is wonderful! What's amazing is that ...The internet is wonderful! What's amazing is that 6 years ago when I first hooked up to the internet, I never would have dreamed that I could make my living based on sales made almost exclusively from the internet! Someday, we hope to move way deep into the moutains of New Mexico and all we will need is a satellite connection and a local post office! I am happy to hear that you too are living the dream!<br /><br />And thanks for the comment on the photos, I just adore New Mexico, I grew up here and it is my home! I have lived a few other places including Hawaii, Colorado and Tennessee and I have always come home! At this point in my life, I doubt I will ever leave again other than for vacation or business trips!Paula Manning-Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18332808733874164921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12537204.post-3526840804641596872006-12-05T13:11:00.000-07:002006-12-05T13:11:00.000-07:00Oh my, those pictures are amazing! I had the pleas...Oh my, those pictures are amazing! I had the pleasure of driving through New Mexico in December 97 and saw my first snow of the year (going from CA to CT). It was so beautiful and so different from the southwest I had seen in August on my trip out to CA. I felt so connected to NM when I was there in the winter and could imagine being very happy living there! If I did, I am sure I'd live much like you - as close to nature as I can get! Isn't it wonderful that as artists we can choose that life vs. the city life, all because of the internet? I am grateful for that every day I go for a walk in the woods, or ship a painting somewhere far away from my local yocal Post Office, and I'm so happy to see another friendly face "living the dream"!! <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your beautiful part of the country with us!, JessAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475024301146537719noreply@blogger.com
