As Promised: Aspen Painting!

I did this watercolor on YUPO for the SCI Recovery Project's 'Hops for Hope' fundraiser. This little piece is 2.5" wide X 12.25" tall and is titled 'September Song'. Go bid on it November 14th! Or bid on all three of the pieces I'm donating.

FROM THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT

We've spent the past 12 days in Chama New Mexico, truly the "Land of Enchantment". The fall colors here are the most spectacular we've seen anywhere! . . . they just go on & on & on! We rode the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic narrow-gauge railroad through the mountains from Antonito CO to Chama; I got a bunch of great photos (aspen paintings on the easel now & in the future!).

Tomorrow we head for City of Rocks State Park, between Deming and Silver City New Mexico -- another truly magical place. Every day I realize what an incredible lifestyle we have chosen for our golden years; we can't imagine doing anything else!
