She had some stuff of my Mom's and some pictures to share with me. So before we can go off vacationing, we needed to visit Mary and pick up the "stuff".
Mary's husband, Jim, is blind. That doesn't stop him from being a very talented stone carver.
As Jim showed Lew his work, Mary and I sat and talked away.
We looked over a box of pictures and Lew took a few photos of the photos that Mary had in her container.

Fun visit. It was so nice to see a cousin without a funeral! Any other cousins interested in getting together?
Art truly does not need sight. This amazing sculptor has art in his soul!! his hands see what most eyes do not see. Where some see simply stones......... he sees animals, people, books, lovers and so much more. I know him well and my heart bursts with pride and love for him. HE IS MY BROTHER!!!
