Dear Friends,
I am showing you one of the paintings I have completed since being
here in Panama. It is of the Amish barn where those of us on the October
Collectors'
Convention bus tour will be having lunch on Friday October 25th.
The local Amish families will be preparing and serving our food and
the walls of the barn will be decorated with quilts. We have lunched
in the barn on two previous occasions and it is a most enjoyable and
fun event. This painting will be reproduced as a print and released
at the convention.
Pat's newest painting for the Pennsylvania
Convention.
My second photo this week shows Sunday luncheon on the terrace of our
house. It started promptly at 1:00 pm and finished at 7:30 pm. Clyde
Stevens, first on my left, is the retired head of research at the banana
company, going on around the circle Claudio Talley is the owner of Hotel
Angela, Millford Pienado and his wife Ziamara Chen Pienado own a restaurant,
and Phyllis Stevens. There you have it. They are all good friends as
you can guess from the length of the lunch. Oh, I nearly forgot, Malcolm
was taking the photo, hence his absence.
Pat enjoys a long lunch with friends in Panama.
I know that we will be united spiritually on September 11th as we remember
the tragedy of last year. Our prayers will be for those to whom the
horror of the morning brought the greatest of agonies, the loss of loved
ones. God Bless.
Love,
Pat
