N 1300 road


Leaving our house and heading east, I walked through the "Hundred Acre Wood" to SR's to drop off a Pepsi. That's one mile.  Next I continued south and east to 31st street, which there reverts to 1300 north. I have done numerous sketches and paintings from biking and walking along this road. But it is never the same; there is always something different to see, or a different way of seeing things....
Ain't that the way it is with God's creation?
Done in the 5 x 9 pad I have been using since starting it in Florida just over 3 weeks ago. That's nearly 60 pages ago. Most are no where near as detailed as this one. I suppose I spent about 15 - 20 minutes on this one, standing on the north edge of the road. Some of these drawings just work out better than others...  I noticed some mistakes of detail when I got home, but the overall drawing turned out pretty crisp- seems to me.
The weather was clear, chilly and a bit of a breeze. It got up to about 38 deg. F. they were saying. Walking home, as I usually do at a brisk pace,  I began to get too hot.
