Cod....This Is Getting Tedious

Been looking at this painting for three days now.

Not that I am complaining mind you.

However, being 'house-bound' due to flu

I am not able and don't have the desire to go outside.

So I sit and watch the Olympics (I don't mind that)

and look around the house from my 'computer chair'.

I bought this folk-art painting last year and have it

sitting atop two bronze urns in the living room.

I do like it a lot and may have (probably did!)

posted about it before.

I believe it is set in Newfoundland

(Canada's youngest province.....1949).

It depicts three women laying out codfish for drying.

This was obviously when cod was plentiful

and before it was over-fished by a world

thinking it would last forever.

And to 'Josie' the artist,

a warm thank you.
