I got TAGGED!

OK, I really don't know what this means - but I'll take a lead from Decorina and post 7 things about myself:

1- I am a decendant of James Fenimore Cooper (author of Last of the Mohicans)

2- I am related to Quannah Parker (Comanche)

3- I won a sholarship to the Otis Art Istitute in LA - that I never used

4- I won a National Endowment for the Arts grant to illustrate a book on coastal ecology, that was never published, but I have great illustrations for.

5- My ex husband walked off into the wilderness with a backpack and has never been seen or heard from since.

6- People don't believe I am a 57 year old ex hippie chick! LOL! Good genes I guess!

7- I have been collecting McCoy pottery, salt n peppers, wall pockets, vintage furniture, arrowheads, native american baskets, vintage prints for over 30 years - and Decorina drove it all in a semi from Colorado to Florida for me!

and here is a link to my tagger - my oldest friend, Decorina herself!

Your oldest friend? Surely you know someone older than I? I kid.

Nice post - I knew you could do it. And I didn't know you were related to Quanah Parker! Way to be.
