Memory Lane in winter

We lived in Kenora, North Western Ontario for ten years. These photos were taken through the kitchen window. Our two youngest children were born in Kenora. Ned made a sand box and play structure for the back yard and I 'experimented' with quilting. Last night I was doing another big studio clean out and found this silk and photo wall piece. I can't believe the puff paint, but there it is.
