A Road Trip to Washington
The banner above is what I did for 4 days. I got to take a road trip to Washington and I have some great photos to paint from now. Very excited to start painting the Northwest. So today is mostly photos from the trip. This photo was taken at Rattlesnake Lake in North Bend, WA.
Sometimes it’s the Little Things
It is so funny how easily entertained I can be when I am surrounded by new stimulation! Enjoying it all.

So Many Possibilites
I have had a busy week since I last wrote and am very excited about the possibilities available here in Oregon and I have only explored a few areas so far!
A Rough Road in a Beautiful World
Well the best laid plans…
I will now have to change the name of this blog, because I was not able to drive up the 395 Hwy. The California fires were impacting the road.

It was a very long drive to do in 2 days with 2 little dogs who were bedded down on the floor of the front seat of the car.
GETTING READY TO WANDER UP THE ROAD
Lots of details, appointments to get done, deciding what I can take that will all fit in the car, which route to take is also a concern because of all the fires throughout California and Oregon.
