Barn on Horse Creek Road`
This little painting was finished and framed recently. When they are not a major piece, I call these small pieces studies or sketches. It started with watercolor, and I added pastel and colored pencil to finish it up. Am taking my prints out to the barn for the art show. And hope some destructive rodents don't get in there. I'm trusting my cats to take care of them. Now I will also need to revise the price list of the prints to reflect the nicely done matting and shrink wrapping. That will involve some computer work and getting a list printed up. I'm thinking of taking the prints to the Green River Rendezvous 2007 Street Art and Craft Fair. You have to rent your "booth space". So a decision will need to made about that soon. I don't much like doing that kind of thing, but now I have all these prints (investment) and need to sell them. My weak point is business/marketing.
It is a dark and dreary morning, with a stiff breeze blowing. Years ago, it would have been raining with this kind of weather, but its iffy whether we'll get any moisture or not. The forecast doesn't call for more than 20% chance of rain all week and supposed to get warmer.
So far all that is planned for today is the usual routine, plus 3 loads of laundry, changing the bed, and later this afternoon we're both going to get some more hay from Tom for Bobbi, so she can be kept in the corral. i.e. I'll drive. Tom lives in Bargerville, between Pinedale and Boulder. The propane man came this morning to fill our tank. Then Joe went out irrigating. I've got my occasional miserable "allergy attack" for lack of a better description.
This is the weekend the Boulter family (see the March 25 entry) is supposed to come to spend a few hours here during their family reunion. The Boulter's were the ones who homesteaded our place in the early years of the 20th century. John Boulter said he would call me to finalize the visit but I haven't heard from him. I had planned to have some refreshments for them, but don't know whether to do that or not, and would need to be working on it tomorrow. I need to look up his letter and see if there is a phone number and maybe call, although they probably would not be there. Maybe they'll just show up. ??
Joe agreed to have a horseshoer come to trim Bobbi and Nube's feet. I need to find a good one and make the arrangements. Joe has always done it all.
Yes we did get some sprinkles of rain.
