A great little violin given to me by the daughter of a 95 year-old neighbor who was a child prodigy. This was her instrument and was old when she got it as a teenager. She passed away almost 10 years ago, but it falls on me to make it sing. Gladly. #violins #musician #music

@aip551 You should take up fishing. You know how to reel them in.

@Lexibexiio People will take this seriously and respond, but it's an obvious ploy for attention and has nothing to do with tipping, etiquette, or any of the other subjects used to get clicks.

@Avabelly__ Posts like this are from people craving attention, likes, or any kind of engagement. Nothing to do with the fake content.

@JanetIsabella_ However, kids who dress up as monsters at Halloween are not really monsters at all.

@JebraFaushay You understand that this person is kidding, right? It's a trick to lure people in for clicks and outrage. Why they need the attention is a psychologist's dream.

@compliantvc Your love of engagement gives you away.

I took this with my flip phone. The texture and retro look inspires me to take more. #Jerseyshore #beachphotos #flipphone

@NiagaraRegion We did visit that side. Unfortunately, it was raining, and combined with the mist from the falls, we could only catch a glimpse of the full horseshoe. We enjoyed it just the same. @NiagraRegion

I like to get out and enjoy the world. This past weekend my wife and I took a little trip to Niagara Falls. It meant lots of walking for an old man like me, but was worth the stunning views. #Niagara #Niagarafalls #photos

@MbarkCherguia I hope there's a nice sauna somewhere in this retreat.

If you want to live an organized life, marry a teacher.

@iqrafatma1278 Life's hard, huh?

@Read_Meee What are you looking for?

Doing some paintings for my daughter and son-in-law's home in the Adirondacks; just fun stuff for the "bunk room." 16 x 20 in moose in acrylics. #ADK #wildlifepainting #moose

[Photos_and_Art_by Skip Van Lenten @SkipVanLenten]

Painting with acrylics is hard. They dry darker than they appear on the palette, making it almost impossible to match the already-dried layers and, because they dry so quickly, it's hard to blend the different colors. The moose is acrylic; the dog is oil.

@TaraBull Worth millions, lol.

Some of the little treasures in life; Asian lilies, day lilies, roses, and cardinals. #flowers #photos #cardinals

@nicksortor What is the purpose of this crap?
