In Memoriam…….
Monday, May 25th, 2009
Grey and cool today, as befits a day of reflection. Grey and a bit rainy, as often on Good Friday and Armistice Day. Grey and deliberate, as should be a day of Memorial thoughts and remembrances…………Grey and thankful……. lest we forget that last full measure..
An end to the watercolor week. Of new and renewed friends, serene hours away from forgettable television and stress of managing the requirements of the everyday, shades of splashing colors and subtle shadows lurking within the brushes, the luxury of expressing that elusive demon creativity, the simple, childish pleasure at the eternal soft rolling of lake waves and the tingling spray on the face as crashing water thunders over the crumbling retainer wall. This was Pelican Lake at its finest – another year of sunshine and sea, ready to serve and right on schedule.
