Maggie inspecting after everything blew over.
Went out to Chapel Pond to greet the dawn and paint. Vry strong winds were coming directly at me and I had my light easel so I painted with one hand and held on with the other. Had a great time, though, chasing the clouds until I let to get some paint out of my bag and a big gust took it all away. Stayed on the easel, though and didn't get dirty. Just set back up and painted some more. I got pretty messy though. What a great way to start the day!
