A favorite place on Cape Cod is the Salt Pond National Seashore Visitor Center in Eastham. It has everything you need, from helpful rangers, bathrooms, maps, and a gorgeous view out of the back. This is it, and my back is about 20 feet from the door, and I am on a patio.  Down below, you see people walking and kayaks getting ready to go explore, marsh, streams, and ocean in the distance plus an iconic little cabin that is positioned just right. I have painted this place three times because I like it so much!

My time on the island of Islesford was very special - it was a weekend class with Henry Isaacs and Ashley Bryan. It just didn't matter that it was raining almost the whole time, we were all so happy to be there. Heaven at an island in the sea….  I had found a place to paint on an enclosed porch that looked out to the next dock, which housed the lobster COOP that served both Cranberry Islands. I was taken by the abstract quality of what I was seeing - the yellow metal structure, a weigh station, I think - tell me if I am wrong!, a ladder down to the water, wonderful pieces of wood and a spot that had a really bright orange spot in a bit of unexpected sunlight. Yum, yum, I like this piece.

I loved the little town of Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard. I know I'm not alone in this. And there I was painting and there were other artists there, too. One had taught me a lesson earlier in my trip. I had wanted to paint a certain area, but it was so windy, I was sure the easel would blow away! Later I went back and an artist was painting in the exact same spot I would have chosen. But he used his vehicle to block the wind and had been there 3 hours. A lesson to remember. Where there's a will there's a way!
