The Three Muses Challenge - Maps

For some reason, when I started thinking about maps, I couldn't get the old song "Is this the way to Amarillo" out of my head so then it was easy to find a map of Texas and to bring my trusty winged courier out of his mothballs.  The Sweet Marie mentioned on the envelope does not refer to me.  For those who are too young to remember the song, Sweet Marie was always waiting for him.  Sha la sha la, la la la!!

  1. Looks like the "winged messenger courier service" has resorted to wheels. I love this guy! I have to say yes, but "do you know the way to San Jose"?, never mind Amarillo! Guess you could do the Texas Two-Step to either one! This is such great fun, Marie!

  8. Ah, but you ARE absolutley Sweet Marie! And I believe I would follow this fun fellow to Amarillo. I've been so busy working on canvases that I haven't been able to participate in as many challenges as i'd like, but I's still out here loving your work!

  9. How did I nearly miss this one? You crack me up with your brilliant tongue in cheek humour, Marie, and this is an absolute joy. Standing ovation from my corner and a double flip too.
