Moving Away and Letting Go

I used to think of myself as adventurous, now I'm not as sure. 

With my husband coming up on his 2nd retirement we find ourselves in a great location that we have grown to love here on the Chesapeake Bay.  

So we have sold the house, sold the sailboat, daughter graduated and son is taking on new career.
We are moving to Michigan where pretty much most of my family lives.  

It WILL be an new adventure just a bit scarier...(maybe because I keep thinking of longer Winters)!

While recently at a family reunion,  ALL the cousins were very excited and welcoming that we are coming "HOME".  I was happy when they warmly included my husband in on all the exciting stuff we will get to do.... and just being around family. Yay!!

Now for the letting go part.

I would like to sell some of my favorite Chesapeake Bay inspired art!  Some of the pieces are large and am willing to LET GO at a VERY, VERY good deal.  If you are interested please send me a message at nadonay@aol.com

Day 28 - This little bird was supposed to be a quick study using 

only 4 colors.  Well wouldn't ya know it, there were about 50 colors

in this little guy.  Painting shiny white objects is crazy difficult!

Anyway he is supposed to be a little salt shaker and I had painted 

a little hole on top of his head...it looked like another eye 

so I rubbed it out...maybe I will try him again tomorrow.

Naaaa probably not.

Day 28 means only 2 more day's of this

About the painting:  Husband and I went out for an evening sail.  Bad news was that there was absolutly NO wind when we got out onto the Chesapeake Bay.  Good news was that all the reflections in the water were especially bright.  So being the sweet husband I have, he manuvered the boat close to a bunch of crab pot buoys.  I started snapping pictures ... well this little bird was posing for me and so here he is!
