The Tortoise and The Hare

Spending the day with my Granddaughter Beth is a joy for me. Being a typical teenager she was bored and wanted me to amuse her. Telling her to go play in traffic did not go over too big. So I looked around and found these planters and decided we should paint them, and Beth being the artist that she is liked the idea. So here they are.
