Haven'...I'm from Gresham, Oregon originally. Haven't been there in 30 years though. My mother was from France, so that's the only connection I have with the language. Never been there myself. We used to go to the beach every year, which was a major carnival, with five kids. My feeling was, if I never went to sea, it would be a good thing! I didn't mind the view though, and the beach fun.Stefannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-82022412192512907432013-02-02T06:45:39.453-06:002013-02-02T06:45:39.453-06:00That is the feeling that I got from the painting.F...That is the feeling that I got from the painting.Frank Benson, the original artist was from Maine and often painted his family - this painting was of his wife. <br /><br />I will look at the videos.
