Got to paint outdoors in this beautiful weather this weekend out at the cabin. I got a great start on a piece but when I got home yesterday and wanted to put finishing touches on it I realized that I had left it there. So maybe I can finish it up in a few weeks. [...]

I write a lot about Lincoln because he is usually misbehaving so I have more stories about his antics so I wanted to lead with Jed in this post. He’s a handsome guy and so good. He had fun at the cabin last weekend running and stretching and rolling in the grass. Max came to [...]

After a delightfully restful weekend at the cabin, I came home with loads of plums, all very ripe and ready for jelly. I love making jelly as it reminds me of both of my grandmothers. Granny had some of the best plum trees in her yard and so did Big Mama. They both made jelly [...]
Relaxing Weekend

Spent a relaxing weekend at the cabin. No painting, no planning for art classes, no nothing but reading and hiking with the boys. They loved it too. Jed and Lincoln have chunked up lately because we haven’t been able to go out there to hike. We all got a jump-start on our exercise plan [...]

As promised yesterday I am going to tell you about our Sunday dog visitor. I was in the cabin reading and looked out the window to check on the boys barking and I see a tail sticking up from the bank of the pond. And I think that dang Lincoln is in the water again [...]

Just got back from a fun weekend at the cabin with one of my painting buddies, Susan, and her latest addition, Max. He was rescued from our shelter by Susan’s family. Aren’t they lucky???!!!! Jed and Lincoln and Max all got along great. But it was Lincoln that Max enjoyed playing with most. Thanks Susan [...]

No new paintings today. I spent part of the weekend recovering from food poisoning. NO FUN! We were out at the cabin so I have cute puppy pictures to post. For some reason Lincoln kept sticking his face down in the ditch where the snow was deep. Not sure what he was after but he [...]
