Description
I found another box of panels as I was arranging the contents in the car for the trip home from the Dumoine. The top panel was an elongated landscape shape fashioned from the rough side of an old sheet of Masonite. I took it down to the beach on Robinson Lake. The tent and tarps would have some more time to dry. I was in no hurry.
It was late morning but the larger fish were still charging the shallow water for the minnows. The flurry of activity and splashes in the water always caught me by surprise.
The landscape turned into a skyscape. Streets of dark turbulent stratocumulus were embedded in the northwesterly flow. Stratocumulus clouds have character and can reveal a lot about the meteorology of the day. The wind had not yet made it down to the surface of the lake through the nocturnal inversion. The morning plein air session must end at noon. The light changes dramatically at midday and no one can keep up with the speed of light.
I loaded the nearly dry tent and tarps and was on the road for the almost four hour drive home by 12:15 pm. It had been a fun and productive visit to the Dumoine and DRAW.
