sitting by the water watching the boat activity pass back and forth, with cormorants and seagulls made for an exciting day.  Watching the tide come in and listening to all the wonderful sounds by the sea.

Summer is good.

No wifi in Maine while painting the last 2 weeks.  So will post the series of waves and rocks during high tide at various beaches.  Painted with the PAPME (plein air painters of Maine) on two occasions. NICE group!

The story of why I haven't posted in months is a saga really.  For starters my back really went out end of March.  And the short short version is grandson visit in LA, brother in Tulsa, Michael's son and family in CT,  my daughter Trillium and met Ben in NYC, computer program difficulty still between Aperture and iPhoto, and integrating them (or knowing how to use the external HD...that's really the saga part....), back to LA, then re entry into VERMONT for one week ...leak in roof, purging clothes closet, re ordering desk office area with closet, purging office... painting in Maine 2 weeks ...and now family visiting for 2 weeks. I'm cooking and getting ready for 11 month old grandson who nearly is walking.
