I think this calls for a celebration, don't you?
A giveaway, perhaps?
In honor of this, my 500th post, I will be awarding one lucky commenter a print from Claude Coats.com. As you may recall, my grandfather, Claude Coats, was a Disney artist and imagineer for over 50 years (I wrote about it here). Of all his many paintings, my favorite is 'Across the Way' (pictured above). It is a painting of the Hollywood Hills, directly across the way from the home that he designed and built in Burbank, CA. This is the home that my father was raised in, and the home that my grandmother passed away in (just 3 days ago). 'Across the Way' has always held a special place in my heart, and so I thought it the perfect gift to offer on this special occasion.
To be entered, please leave a comment by 10:00 tonight PDT. The winner will receive a 13x15 inch print.
Thank you for reading this little journal of mine. My family and I have found such great support through the blogging world as we have dealt with Elisabeth's medical issues over the past few years. Your comments and emails have meant so very much.
Thank you, thank you!
(Winner will be announced tomorrow morning.)
