Been creating alot of smaller pieces instead of finishing my big one.
I really need to finish it though- I've got another BIG piece already in mind. It's gonna be a [emoji217]! I'm thinking a life size portrait of a Galapagos. Hubby will have to help me mount the paper to a board... I should order more mounting glue[emoji15]
Lol. Good luck. Sounds like a lot of work and time.

It’s going to be HOT here today. Ok, at least above freezing, maybe close to 40F with sunshine. The plan is to get a few hours of kayaking in this morning. You know the old saying “Make hay while the sun shines!”

Happy Sunday
Happy Sunday Mark. Enjoy making your hay while the sun is shining.

So, it was supposed to be rather Sunny and “warmish” today. Slight winds. Loaded up the kayak onto a frost covered truck and zipped over to the water.

Hmmmmm - not much sun, breezy, frozen launch point. But, not as frozen as last week. Ok, I decide ive gone to the trouble of getting this far, might as well at least paddle a bit.

Paddled out and lots of frozen over areas where it would have been calmer based on the winds. A few circles and crossings and out to more open waters. A nice large Bald Eagle spotted me as i hugged the shore. No Tundra Swans, but lots of Canada geese.

More wind, more open water, less sun. Waterproof paddling gloves are “handy” and appreciated. But, thick gloves hinder lots of pix being taken.

Yea have fun while it's 40°. By Tuesday I'm supposed to get 48 hours of 20 to 40 below wind chills. I did go out today and I'll finish stocking up tomorrow. On Tuesday I plan on playing with animals. I won't be sticking even my nose out the door.
