It is SO wonderful to see so many participants by school children here on the Peninsula!
I was in the fifth grade when I drew a picture of Gearge Washington on Traveler , his horse, and I remember how the teacher praised me! I then went on to be able to share my talent and love of painting with 100’s of people through the years by teaching ( I call it sharing!) my love and appreciation of what I beleive to be a God Given Talent!
Never let it go! It keeps your heart young!
Tom, Well done! I know all the Winners will be excited to see their names in print. Appreciate your help, PH
