Dorothy Lander Shares Letters and Pictures from Floridian First Graders!

Sharing Finger Lakes Foliage with Young Floridians turns into a Treasure of Letters and Drawings!

Last Fall, Dorothy (Dot) Lander collected a box of colorful leaves and sent them to her daughter, Janet, who is a 1st grade teacher in Florida. Janet's students, many of whom had never been exposed to the beautiful Fingerlakes colors, responded in a most thoughtful way.  They drew pictures and composed letters. Dot was so surprised and overcome with joy when she opened the package. 

These pictures and letters have been displayed in the CM living room this week for all CM residents, staff, families and visitors to enjoy! A big thank you to Dot for sharing with all of us.  We have been in awe of the thoughful messages, the drawings, and the amazing penmanship coming from such young children.

The Art of Serenity

A mountainous scene to calm the soul by Al Johnson

Jody Wilbur, Lifestyle Assistant,  has taught us to celebrate the peace and joy that art can bring during this age of coronavirus.  She has held weekly painting classes for two years.  We've heard about how spending time in nature reduces stress. Well, at Clark Meadows we have found a way to bring the peace of nature into our lives.  It's called landscape art and Al Johnson has exquisitely demonstrated this technique today with his evergreens and mountains painted on a window.  As the paint is drying we admire his work and wonder how it will look in the evening twilight. Our residents will be sure to peek at this scene as the sky changes tonight.
