Does That Piece Fit?_114:365

Another special photo of my mother-in-law! I'll be leaving Winnipeg and heading back to Texas this week so I'm trying to get a few of her photos into my project while I'm still here. I know as time goes by I'll be happy I made the effort to include them. She has enjoyed jigsaw puzzles for years and always has one in progress. We've shared a lot of fun times together working on puzzles. Right after I took these shots I was back in that chair next to her trying to find pieces that fit. We're trying to finish this puzzle before I leave. :-)
That is a huge puzzle and she is working on a section that is just smudgy green. I'm impressed.

That is one heck of a puzzle but you are nearly there and you are right to take these lovely photos while you can.

That is quite the puzzle...it looks like fun. Great shot. You will cherish these last couple of shots!

Oh Gayle this warms my heart. My mom has a similar love of puzzles and when I go see her we work together on the puzzle that's in progress. We have lovely chats and I treasure our time together puzzling. Wonderful shot. .

That's quite some size puzzle - what a pleasant hobby to share with her.

@kategoring It's so wonderful that you have those special times together with your mother, Kate! My mother-in-law got me started on jigsaw puzzles over 30 years ago. It's one of our traditional activities every summer at the cottage. There's ALWAYS a puzzle going and when friends visit they usually sit and put in a couple of pieces. :-)

Now *that's* impressive! Here in California, I don't know many (any, actually) people who do puzzles, but up in Canada, it seems to be the way so many pass the winter! I have a best friend there whose husband is failing, but he enjoys puzzles, so only today I've sent a puzzle made of a photo I took of Lunenburg. I look forward to seeing it finished when I return!

Great shot. You both must have a great deal of patience.

I am well impressed! She's got it all organised there. I could see me doing that if I get to live that long. Great choice of puzzle too. Lovely capture Gayle.

How nice to capture someone dear to you doing the things she likes. It will always bring back fond memories for you when you are unable to be together

A beautiful capture Gayle and one that I am sure will be treasured. That is a very impressive puzzle :)
March 1st, 2016  
Such a lovely capture of something you both enjoy. Great puzzle too.

I thank you for the comment on the photo of my grandmother, and I was surprised that you took the picture of your mother-in-law, they have almost the same age! I am moved to know you are so attentive and spend time with her

Puzzles are aways fun for all ages.

@colleenculhane Thanks, Colleen! Yes, puzzles certainly do provide hours and hours of fun!

@jo38 Thank you, Jo! It's almost but not quite finished. We were so busy today that we didn't have much time at all for our puzzle. It looks like she'll have to finish it alone after I leave tomorrow morning.

One can only envy the mental condition.

Looks like a gorgeous jigsaw of a Degas painting--hope it's finished before you leave. I like the pov in this capture.
