ADOPTED by BRENDA CARTER On the last day of my painting trip to Sonoma and Napa last fall we decided to be tourists and drive the little windy road from the Russian Valley, where we stayed, to Bodega Bay for a late leisurely lunch. The little "town" of Bodega Bay is where Hitchcock filmed his thriller "The Birds", but there is no post office, no town, just a group of places to stay and a restaurant. We meandered along the coastal highway pulling off to enjoy the views. I walked out onto the bluff that overlooked the cliffs that line the rocky shoreline and almost blew away in the gusty winds. NOT a good place to try and set up an easel to paint! I love the way a scene gets implanted into my memory once I've painted it. Hope you have a fabulous day, I'm going to contemplate what I still need to accomplish over the last 25 days of my Little Gems Project. Thanks to all of you who have been "along for the ride"...stay with me for a little while longer! Ciao
