Tuesday 4

 

Painting With Tom Sawyer

Norman Rockwell's Whitewashing the Fence

Well, we are on the doorstep of August. How do you like that?   A lot of Tom Sawyers adventures take place in the summer like whitewashing Aunt Polly's fence.

Hannibal, Missouri has fence painting contests in July and and July 4th is National Tom Sawyer day there.  They have a parade, carnival,  fireworks, and a general good time is had by all it seems.

So here is another set of questions for Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.        I hope you enjoy them.

1. What special things happen around you in summer? If nothing, have you ever considered organizing something? A few festival and of course Summer reading program. 

2. Tom hated painting. But on the subject of painting, what color is your house? Your living room? Your bedroom?  Thinking of  changing anything? Home : white, Living room : light teal, Bedroom : Haze (light purple /grey)n

3. Were your childhood summers carefree and did you have any adventures or chores like Tom did? Mostly Hot and visiting with family. 

4. Did you ever help paint a house or a fence or anything at all?  How did that go? We painted our French and porch.
