Pause for a minute or two and imagine that after a life lived near people, stores and highways, you find yourself in a small cabin on a remote island accessed only by water, a dense forest, and, yes, grizzly bears. Imagine that! That’s what Carole did when the expected money from salmon fishing didn’t pan out. Why would she do that? Carole’s memoir, FISHING FOR COURAGE, gives us clues to answers to that question.

You are invited to join Lee and Roger on the second part of their spring tulip trip, this time to the Skagit County destination called ROOZENGAARDE. This family-owned farm was founded in 1947 by Dutch immigrant William Roozen, on five acres, but today both family and acreage have greatly increased!

I love little birds and Spring! With that as inspiration I recently took a delightful online class from The Wild Ink Workshop with an English Artist, Lucia Leyfield, on making little illustrative books (4 1/4”x5 1/2”) with a bird theme. I learned a “trouser” book format using one sheet of paper to make the base then adding pages with different techniques in watercolor, colored pencil, ink and paint pens to complete the project.
What fun I had creating each page! I hope these pages bring a smile to your face like they do mine.😊
