Flying tomorrow

Tomorrow's the big one. Flying out of Logan to London, bussing to Stansted and flying to Almeria, Spain. I'll be picked up at the airport and will drive a couple of hours to the finca in the almond orchard in the middle of the National Forest. I wish I could be more specific than that, but I don't have the information yet.

The plan is to spend about six weeks there, travelling to Granada and other cool spots, including a nearby lake where I hope to get in some fishing. Obviously, I will be looking at used bicycles as the finca is rather remote.

Baggage includes a sketch pad, a watercolor pad, paints, brushes, pencils and a couple of books on drawing/painting. Oh yes, I am also carrying the leather-bound journal I use as an idea book, which Shannon gave me waaaay back when I decided to study art. As a matter of fact, tucked in the binding is the $20 she slipped in with it saying that starving artists need a good cup of coffee now and then. Let's see if I can bring it back.

Have a great winter, All, I'll see you after April 5.
