Poem "Weather" Written By Joyce Riley

Photo Taken by Avery Laurin

Though my eyes are closed and shades are drawn,

My inner clock tells me it is dawn.

But, I hear no sounds of birds a calling,

Only silence of snowflakes falling.

The shades fly up. My eyes grow wide.

There is a world of white outside.

Where heavy laden pine trees stand

As guardians of winterland

Avery is quite an amazing photographer! He has his grandma's artistic eye! The Winter poem was pretty great, too. Gee, a whole family of talent. Love it!! Love you, Cynthia

If you don't live in Aromas, California, you might not know about the Aromas Bridge that has recently been dressed up with 75 colorful fish--all swimming toward town. Each fish is 42 inches long and painted by a volunteer using five vibrant colors of acrylic mural paint. Our volunteer painters were all ages, 10 to 80 years old, with or without painting experience. They carefully designed their fish, and the results are magnificent. Three generations in my family had a good time painting fish. I watched a senior couple paint one fish with their granddaughter.

Now that our river is clean and the steelhead are back--75 colorful fish have joined the fun. This is the ninth mural to be organized and donated by the Aromas Hills Artisans.
