It was a chilly breezy morning but the sun was shining and the crab apples were blooming. With the strong sunlight I think most of us were concentrating on shadows. I think there were at least a dozen painters there this morning although I didn't get to say Hi to everyone. Tom, Mary and I went for an outdoor lunch after at Hollander at Hilldale which was fun and the food was good, too. So nice to do something "normal"! It was so beautiful at the arboretum that I went back again after lunch.
If you are not on our email list but want to come paint with us or stop by when we are painting you can find the scheduled dates posted on the Events calendar on this blog. Tom does the scheduling and because it is so weather dependent the event usually does not get posted more than 6 or 7 days in advance and sometimes less. Wisconsin weather is never easy to predict!. It was great to see you all and hope to see more painters nest time! Pat
