this week

since. I rolled off the board of a non-profit I volunteer for. I've had some. free time. which. of course. immediately. gets snatched. up. with other. duties. strike that. choices.
now. I pick. and choose. my time. a lovely predicament.
one. of my favorite things. I did. while sitting on the board. was to work with our local art center. this collaborative project. a plein air Paint Out. twice a year. with a follow-up. exhibit. now. I'm lucky. to be able to continue with this project.
working. chatting. learning. these talented artists are a refreshing view. on life. such a gift.
it is. truly. a pleasure. to continue. sharing. these hours.
