The Bloomin' Holidays

We thought Santa and Mrs. Claus had stopped at this Gatesmills home to do laundry. These bloomers didn't need any starch - it was an extremely cold day. You can see some pretty interesting things when out for a drive on Cleveland's east side.

Twenty miles west wind and snow had created other patterns. Those of you who work in downtown Cleveland may recognize this place when grabbing lunch, but not from this angle. Do you know what it is?

Winter Tracery From the Cleveland Sight Center

For years the Cleveland Sight Center has offered a variety of holiday greeting cards based on the works of local artists. These include the talents of Hector Vega, Jay Patel, Viktor Schreckengost and many others. I was fortunate to add my contribution again this year with "Winter Tracery."

Profits from the sale these cards benefit Sight Center projects in our community.
