This is my last piece at Crabapple Creek. There are so many trees there and fields. However today i discovered Oaks Island on Sauve Island. i was working on a piece and who should drive up but Brenda Boylan, Gretha Linewood , and Bev Drew Kinley on their way out. I said next time ask me to go. I'm just not popular. Oh well. keep on keeping on. The area is soon to be closed for the season anyway. I don't know if I'll get to finish the piece i started there. I guess I'll have to wing it. But next year....... I don't know if there is going to be a paint out day at Sauvie this Saturday or not. I have to go to NW Wine Bar to pick up one of my pieces but maybe i can get some time in the morning to get some work done.
