ARTWORK SAGA 3:

RAY PETERSEN PAINTING
Milton, DE.
2009

The instant I saw this painting I knew Io had to have it.  My friend Ray had just restarted his art avocation. He had been a botany professor at Howard University. So, his insight into plant design is remarkable.

ROSE HIPS: The Coral Sea

The painting has inspired me so I painted my walls with branches to resemble the twigs in the painting!

TIDBITES SAGA:

THE KITCHEN AT PAYNTER'S MILL
Milton, DE

This establishment is now run by the old Second Street Grille which closed in Lewes.

It's small and cozy with a fireplace.

The food is scrumptious and reasonable in cost.

Marilyn, Ted and I went there on February 17th, 2012. We had a lovely meal with lots of conversation.

JIMMY'S GRILLE
Bridgeville, Delaware

This one's a little off the beaten path but well worth going to. It's about forty-five minutes west of Rehoboth Beach in a pretty, historic town.

It serves great and huge-sized American-style food.

The pies and cakes are incredible—piled so high they're formidable.

Chichen and crab cakes

   ---Definitely a Destination.

ARTWORK SAGA 2:

KINETIC LIGHT BOX SCULPTURE
Washington, D.C.
1969

Hanging in my living room is a most speculator piece of art.

One-of-a-kind: It was shown at the Kinetic Light Show at the Whitney Museum in NYC about 1966. I bought it in 1969 at a Washington gallery, instead of a used car that I needed. But it just blew me away. Still does.

The depth goes to infinity: top, back, bottom and both sides. The rotating cylinders give 1500 color combinations an hour.

 When off, it becomes a mirror!

BLUE MOON 
Rehoboth Beach

This venerable restaurant has been around for 30 years.

It's consistently been named one of the top ten restaurants in Delaware.

Located in a wonderful, old Victorian beach house, it's premier eating and surroundings and ambience are tops.

BLUE COAST SEAFOOD GRILL
Bethany Beach

This exciting restaurant is located right on Salt Pond. Its seafood is superb and the sunset view of the bay is delightful.

It's a simple place with surprising qualities: for instance the hand-carved booths.

Swordfish!
