Picking Raspberries
After my art class, we went to pick raspberries. Elaine's getting a bumper crop this year. I came home and did a quick watercolor sketch while gabbing on the phone to my daughter. I think I do better painting when I'm NOT paying attention LOL.Tuesday, September 20, 2011

Rosy Dawn and Purple Dusk
My art book was right. Morning light is rosy and evening light is purple. I wonder why that is.Monday, September 12, 2011

Along the Middle Branch of the Nimishillen Creek
The Nimishillen Creek gets its name from local Native American words, ni (creek) and missilla (black alder tree, aka American Winterberry) which frequently lines the creek.

Moreton-in-Marsh
We stayed overnight at the White Hart Royal Hotel in Moreton-in-Marsh, across the street from Mrs. T. Potts tearoom. Moreton-in-Marsh features in a number of Agatha Raisin novels by M. C. Beaton. Agatha Raisin is a 50-something-year-old sleuth whom reviewers liken to "a cross between Miss Marple, Auntie Mame, and a pit bull." If you need to escape into a British cozy mystery with a touch of spoof, I heartily recommend this series. We also recommend Mrs. Pott's toasted teacakes!
Market Hall
Market Hall in Moreton-in-Marsh. Each of the Cotswolds villages we passed through seemed to have their own distinctive market hall at the end of a village green.
