Fall Artist Get-away!

Me, making the first ceremonial dig.....(thanks Jeff for digging through the roots of the trees nearby to create a hole for our special time capsule). Sorry, your tennis shoes didn't fit.
The group as they made a trek through the woods that lead to my pond.

What a motley crew!!! Doris, Gayle, Carolyn, Sue, Bob, Jeff, and Bev.
All very talented people. Very talented painters.
Bob, Sue's husband isn't part of the gallery but is a creative writer, is clever, and quit witted.

Gayle hopped out and offered to take a shot with me and my art family. WE MISSED YOU JACK!

I couldn't help but add Doris's creative journalism about this special event. She is the gallery's Secretary...so here goes:
After brilliant conversations, hilarious laughter and gourmet food, everyone walked the awesome trail thru the woods to Lynn's mirror lake and on to a spot at the endof the trail. Jeff and Lynn dug a hole for our time capsule. Each member signed thetop of the time capsule and dropped in a significant object or objects. Each member raked dirt over the top of the container. Lynn took pictures of the prestigious ceremony for posterity and her blog. The Time Capsule will be opened in two years or more. Returning through the woods by flashlight, the melodious voices of the group rose in the crisp night air singing Happy Birthday to Jeff. Tons of pumpkin pie,cool whip and a beautifully decorated birthday cake were consumed afterwards.
