This week I finished a painting I had been working on. I had a photo of the boys at the beach, so I removed the people and just added the umbrellas and houses in the back. It was fun to do and good practice. I will need to get better paper, since this paper tends to pill when you add too much water, but it is good enough for practice.
Last weekend we got a nice walk in at the park. We spotted a turtle, half way in a hole. Not sure if it was resting or laying eggs.
I also spotted a female Eastern Towhee.
Today we did our walk at the lighthouse. It was a beautiful day and we lucked out, when the Newport Regatta came by.
These two boats were neck and neck.
When they come around the lighthouse, the waves get rougher.
It was a nice walk, though we went back and forth and side to side to watch them. They race around the island, so we got to watch the last of them coming around the other beach. I always enjoy getting out in the fresh air, and always a fun day for Bean.
I hope you all had a nice week and aren't stuck in the rain. We have rain coming tomorrow, so hopefully we can get out on Sunday.

We had 2 nice days and an overcast day and now rain I am so tired of the rain.
Great pictures. Nice job on the painting.

Wow! You did a great job on the painting of the boys at the beach!! I hope you have a special place picked out for it to be displayed. I really enjoyed seeing the photos of the regatta - that first photo of the three similar boats all in a row is perfect! We have had rain for an entire week, save 1 day...and the forecast is for another week of the same. I can't remember being this wet. I'm going to have to hook up the sump pump again I think. The poor farmers, though....they can't get in the fields and what they have gotten planted is standing in water.
