Taking my Leave

I leave you with a beautiful photo of the Mokelumne River... filled to overflow and reflecting clouds in its waters. This was taken from the Middle Bar Bridge at the border of Amador and Calaveras Counties.

I'm leaving this afternoon. I will be gone until Tues or Wednesday of next week. I'm going to the ART-IS-YOU Art Retreat in Petaluma, CA. My sister and I will be there for a long weekend.... and Riki... and Diana... and lot's of other folks.
I CAN NOT WAIT.
There will be food, artists, fun and a wonderful Antique Fair too.
I'm taking a class on Altered Books and one on Nuno Felting. The classes are taught by well known artists and mine are both all day classes. Should be very exciting.

See you next week.

  8. Oh, the Art Retreat sounds completely fabulous!
    I LOVE Petaluma! When Tina and I used to vacation together, Petaluma was one of our favorite places to visit. I consider it part of my old stomping grounds. Have a wonderful time! (I already know you will!)
