with WISkrs @ Elliott's house

 We were invited to a wonderful high bank "cabin in the woods" overlooking the water in Clinton.  In fact, it made me very nostalgic because Elliott's view is the same one Mom and Dad had for years out their front windows - straight out over the water to Everett and the Cascade range. 


 The house is full of little nooks and crannies that are in turn full of interesting "stuff", like seashells, feathers and skulls.  It was quite a sketchers paradise.

 I sat in a chair with my back to a HUGE tree propped up so I wouldn't tumble down the embankment into the briers and nettles on the way to the swamp at the bottom.  Except for being VERY CHILLY it was lovely to sit and sketch among the twittering birds and the delicate aroma of skunk cabbage.  Ah, spring!
 THIS IS MY SKETCH OF THE HOUSE
