Not me. I’m never moving again, being deeply traumatized by leaving Lemon Cove and moving 14 miles east to Three Rivers almost 22 years ago.
A friend of a friend is leaving California. My friend would like to give her friend a little something as a token of our native state. Her idea was perfect – a 2×2″ painting of a poppy, the state flower.
Back when I thought I was ordering a dozen 2×2″ canvases to give them a try, I ordered a dozen packages of 10 each. It has taken awhile, but they are now all used up.
I was relieved to find a poinsettia which could be converted to a poppy.
It needs to dry, then it can sit on a cute little easel for the friend of a friend who is leaving California.
I think she deserves a medal of bravery for making such a huge change.

I have one of those beautiful California Poppy paintings on its cute little easel that is proudly displayed in my living room.
Moving out of California? Can’t blame her politically, or perhaps even weatherly. I don’t think I could ever leave my church family and friends!
Thank you Sharon – so glad to know your little poppy isn’t in a drawer somewhere.
I can imagine leaving my community and roots, but it isn’t something I can think about too long. Makes me twitch.
