Southern Artist

This painting was done by our artist neighbor to our south. My husband had given him some wood for his fireplace and he repaid us by painting this picture. My husband requested a picture with old barns.
Reading Meggie's Blog yesterday, she was talking about shopping for a new lounge (couch) after the new carpet had been put in. I knew exactly what she was talking about. We "test drove" (her words) every couch in the town 10 miles to the north of us. We visited every store. We didn't like anything. Finally though, I was getting tired and I had made up my mind that if my husband even seemed the least bit interested in anything, I was going to say "yes, yes!" So when he saw this plaid and said what do you think, I quickly said yes even though I wasn't all that crazy about it. Now I'm comfortable with it and surprise... it even goes with the painting! (Please don't tell me it really doesn't ... I'm really not a decorator...LOL)
