Feeling Like Home

After three and a half months on the road it feels really good to do 'normal' things. We have now been set up at Shorty's RV park for four days. We have left-over turkey, sunshine and warm temperatures. Bob headed out this morning to do chores and shopping and I opted to stay home and enjoy doing home stuff. I had one of my favourite blues cd's from our trip, Robert Johnson's Best playing as I did laundry, vacuumed and generally put things in order. By the time Bob came back it was lunch time. He is watching college football and I am enjoying the opportunity to resume my painting.
We are feeling very comfortable here. Temperatures are perfect, whether cooler or warmer. Anywhere from mid 50's to mid 80's for the winter months. We are surrounded by water and all kinds of seafood, on the flyways for bird migration and lots of interesting communities in every direction. We are going to explore in small expanding circles. We are excited to get to know this area as we did Arizona over the years.
Today my journal picture is my interpretation of a photo I took of Bourbon Street in New Orleans. My blogging abilities are improving and I was able to add it to the blog for our day in ' Nawlins...
I am so happy to have sister Sherry as my painting partner. It is wonderful to have someone to share the enjoyment of journaling, and painting. We are a mutual admiration club of two, boosting each other's insecurities and applauding each other's work. Here is an example of her work that I find incredible for someone who had never painted until less than a year ago. Paint on!!
Not as much to report regarding our travels but definitely more time to paint:)
