Memphis with its many art and music festivals hosted the wonderful River Arts Festival this weekend. The festival was on Main street and featured a number of music venues including blues, rock and bluegrass. The street was teeming with artists tents full of unique, vibrant art from all over the country. Painting, sculpture, jewelry and textile artists showcased their wares for all of Memphis to see.
Still open today, (Sunday) you can come in free, grab a beer and a barbeque and listen to some awesome Memphis Music. Yesterday late afternoon, the Reba Russel Band
captivated an audience on a grassy hill where no one could keep from at LEAST tapping their toes (some let the music take them over and dance wildly!) as the smoky blues rythms floated out into the street toward the Mighty Mississippi. 
Just a couple of blocks away, you can get a spectacular view of the River. Historical Buildings surround you as you stroll down the sunny fall colored streets.

As it grew late into the evening, all of the creatures of the land scurried to bed. Into their little hideaways they went. The sun was sinking silently between the two great hills, about to disappear completely into the vast sea. Just before it was swallowed away, the sun turned everything to gold. Then everything would become a shade of purple, blue or black. And the husssshhhhhhhh of night would begin.
Apparently sitting in a box outside is better than just sitting outside.
And Apparently my space is um....her space. I don't mind sharing. We like to have our spaces. I was home sick today. First time in a long time I have been sick (with the exception of the toothache). I slept and read alot. I am feeling better. Probably about 85 percent. 
Well, here is part of my space. I neaten it up..and then mess it all up again.
