Finally.....

Sorry I've been away from blogging for quite awhile. I thought I'd share the vacation I went on last week. I gave up going to Disneyland for this trip, so I had high expectations. I'm happy to say it exceded them.

Last Sunday, I hooked up to my little T@b and hit the road,
and headed to an RV park north of Conroe.
I've always wanted to go to a painting convention and this was the year that I finally got my courage. The best thing I compare it to is a basketball player getting to take lessons from Michael Jordan, so it was a little intimidating .
Once I walked through the doors, I was in Heaven. I'm always getting teased about have paint on my hands, everyone had paint on their hands!!!! I got to take classes with Maxine Thomas, Prudy Vanier, Peggy, Harris, Shara Reiner, and more... Here are a few of my projects...

Great projects! Nothing beats that first painting experience with some of the "big brushes" Glad that you were able to go and glad that you enjoyed it!

I had a great time too. I was in the little birdie class with you and Peggy Harris. She is a Hoot! I haven't finished mine yet. These people want me to work this week.

Everything looks great.

OMGosh! I am in Conroe! I had no idea this was so close to my neck of the woods! Darnit! I would love to learn how to paint!

Welcome back! First, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your little camper! We had one similar to that growing up and can you imagine that all four of us stayed in it together? It was a 1950-something model and Mom redecorated the inside to update it a bit. YOur painting looks GREAT! So happy you had a great time!

Thank you for another essential article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a complete way of writing? I have a presentation incoming week, and I am on the lookout for such information.

I clicked on "next blog" and there you were with a cute little RV!! I have a campground.

I would love to take painting classes, but am held captive with my current occupation.
