Boats

I don't think I have ever before painted a boat.
Not sure if it's done or not.

I have painted some canvas!

This one still seems a bit pale but not as foggy as intended.

In progress on the easel.

The last few weeks have been dedicated to Elderberries

 

Elderberry Wine

A little bit (not nearly enough) Elderberry Jam!

The Great Vermont Plein Air Paint out 2013

Painting my - house continued...

I wish I knew how to turn this photo - summer 2013

I'm actually sort of laughing at myself

 although it's true I am not comfortable up on the high ladder.

Honestly even years ago, when I moved in, the peeling paint and weather damage was worse towards the bottom of the house. Even though I will have to go up high to finish eventually I figure - in my old stoic way, that every little bit of coverage will help protect the house from further erosion.

ROAD TRIP!

John and I traveled across the country beginning on April 2nd,

Snowing and 25 degrees in Vermont when we left

New York had no snow..

driving to Colorado, staying with family for a weekend or so then arriving home in the evening of April 18th.


We crossed a lot of states, and I took a lot of Photos -which I am still sorting.
