Thanksgiving day, before we left Birch Bay’s WorldMark “resort” I had gathered 2 new canvases. One is the parking permit…nice and orange and thick enough for the soon-to-be-reduced to 4X6 Rosa post card. The second is a hunk of beach rock to be painted and named.

Little things are fun to paint.

Such as this little hunk of wood and some beach metal which became Rabbit Rain.

And this little piece of brick found on a beach in Bellingham.

And a little piece of wood from who knows where.

Thanksgiving Day was Saturday Nov. 29th for our family. Bellingham was the site. Food was good! As was the company.

The front-our parking permit for WorldMark’s Birch Bay locale. One short night between family visits.

Rosa liked the little crackers.

And was fascinated with the tadpoles in our pond.

Sister Katelynn Jo was born!

A reward for, well, something all parents want kids to learn to do…hockey hips!

Commonly called chocolate chips.

Rosa saw two walls full of duck decoys where I displayed my art during Artrails. “Ducks high. Ducks all over.”

Earlier she celebrated her 2nd birthday with bug cup cakes made by Chelsea.
