A couple of days ago I taught two of the children how to mix color, at least in part, as they were interested in trying to paint landscapes along with me.
Yesterday afternoon the three of us drove up the mountainside to try and get to a nice spot with a good view down towards the ocean so we could do a little plein air painting. Unfortunately, our vehicle got hopelessly stuck in the mud. Our insurance company has free roadside assistance... but after being on the phone with them a few times, it turns out that doesn't apply to the rocky country road on which we live.
Fortunately, one of my neighbors has a little 4WD jeep and graciously took me back up the road to my stuck vehicle and pulled me out with a rope.
Not a very good prequel to my month of painting, but I thank God for my caring neighbor.
