Petey's in Maine

An elderly lady in my church handed me a small monetary gift yesterday.
My husband and I have not done much lately, so we drove to Petey's, up north in Maine and had a fried haddock sandwich. It was mmmm good!
We pulled off into a state park facing part of the ocean and I slept with my little wool blanket while my husband read.
I told him on the way back home after picking up a Duncan's coffee that I felt like a baby. "All I did was sleep and eat today."
Now I am cooking supper and washing a load of laundry and tomorrow, picking up my mom who lives an hour and a half away and taking her to a vascular doctor.

Graphics-Illustrations-Hot Dogs




Have you ever been aware of the signs and posters that around you in your everyday life? Do they make an impact on you; on your purchases, on your interests.

For instance, this little hot dog stand in Maine that we stopped at. One dollar for a hot dog, not a bad buy! and a yummy one too! This little shack sits on a rotary in Maine where once a week they have $1.00 hot dogs from 11:00-3:00. Notice the sign on the shack and the sign in front. Would this sign attract you to stop by and eat or would you only stop by if someone mentioned they were good dogs? I think I do both; take the recommendation and look at the outside of the place.

Take this into consideration when you are working on illustrations and graphics in your works.
