I've always been fascinated by rocks, rock formations and the red desert rocks, in particular. The title Hoodoos links to the Wikipedia article.
The image is an original watercolor by Sue.

The illustration is arresting and the words complement it.

I've always like rocks, rock formations too. I love to climb up on them, sit and think about things while enjoying the view- when I can. You poem and watercolor are great. Hope all is well. Have a great day.

This is gorgeous Sue!

You'd like the Petra very much in that case. I love mountains too, especially the Himalayas. This post is fabulous!
Beautiful watercolor and beautiful poem! It makes we wish I could walk right into the picture.
I'm glad to find someone else who did post about laundry or work needing attention. I posted a happy pile, too.
The painting is fantastic and the words are wonderful.
