Back in the front yard again. Another gorgeous afternoon for painting outside. I thought it would take less energy to paint at home then in the field. After arranging the pumpkins, then rearranging and rearranging them again, I ended up being just as tired. On the bright side, it was a good opportunity to catch up with the neighbors walking by.
Mill Creek has a very nice walking path on it's western edge. On one side of the path are shops, town homes and apartments. On the other side are streams, ponds and forest. From one end to the other is about three miles. In the middle are some terrific restaurants. While on the path, Don and I spotted this lovely heron. We celebrated the end of our walk with lunch at the local Mexican restaurant. All in all a very nice day out.
It was a gorgeous fall day. Absolutely not a day to paint inside. Instead of roaming the countryside to find a good view, I decided to set up shop in my front yard.
Megan received a new sleeping bag for her first backpacking trip this summer. I walked by while she was trying it out in the family room and had to snap a picture of those cute eyes peering out at me.
Another painting of the lighthouse in Cape Disappointment State Park.
