St. Michaels Artists

I love art and nature. There is an abundance of art all around us. Beauty surrounds us, comforts us and inspires us. Then we have the artist who take their inspirations and talents and shower the world with their art forms.

I am the proud owner of a fantastic piece of art that hangs in my home. This lovely piece of work has traveled with me through three states and many years. In New York it hung elegantly above the fireplace. In North Carolina it claimed a prominent place on the living room wall. In Florida it adorns the wall in the family room. It is such a marvelous painting that I painted my walls to match the landscape in the painting.

This talented artist who now resides on the Eastern shore of Maryland has had her work displayed on the streets of St. Michaels. These fabulous artistic banners will be auctioned off in a few weeks. I am so pleased that I own one of her masterpieces.

Mary Ellen Mabe - you are the best. Check out her banners that graced the streets of the Eastern shore giving everyone a glimpse of nature as seen through the eyes of an artist.

The Eastern Shore

Easton, Maryland is a town near St. Michaels, Maryland where parts of the 'Wedding Crashers' was filmed. I have been to Easton and stayed in Easton several times. I do prefer St. Michaels. One can almost feel the conservatism in these small towns. But never did I know that in Easton what one does in Easton doesn't stay in Easton like Las Vegas.
The Eastern shore has its own kind of ambiance, rules and moral codes. Where does our VP choose to live? It certainly is a strange mixture in that there part of the country. Beauty abounds also. Then, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the beholdiths in Easton don't want to see all that skin.
Apparently there is this little town ordinance about men and women going topless in town and public places. Now, if you are just visiting or passing through - 'How would you know'? I do believe that if women are prohibited from baring it all in public that law should apply to men also. It's not fair. Women's lib, women's rights - whatever!!! We need to be treated as equals!!!
So beware when traveling through or stopping for entertainment in this sleepy little town perched on the Eastern shore of Maryland. When you stop at any of the wonderful restaurants for their delicious crab cakes put that shirt back on.
