Well, I haven’t posted much in October, mostly because October was a whirlwind, crazy busy month for me. I taught art and nature classes all over the Cape, had an exhibit at Barnstable Town Hall and wrote a whole lot of columns and reviews. Yep, it was a busy month.

I worked with Project Life classes through the Thornton Burgess Society in Sandwich, Bourne and Mashpee….

taught kids how to pick up crabs without getting pinched…

taught a little painting to adults, too….at Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary but also did a little painting of my own…

We had a little reunion with former students–all the ladies but me are in their 80s and one is in her 90s! I’ve known most of these ladies as students since 1980 and we’ve all become great friends. One moved to New Mexico 10 years ago but came to see us this fall….

We had a great 5 week session of fall Sandy Neck Junior Rangers…

and of course, the always energetic and photogenic Arlo was happy to join me walking along the canal on some of the best fall days….
