A cold sparkle of a day – Misty morning – curling clouds at noon, - pale rainbow sky as an afterglow – noon ground yellow mottled – Daniels & I have planned to attend Keller’s Summer Class this Summer – we will camp out, Daniels said he could cook – It will be a fine adventure – In Daniels I am finding qualities I have found in no other friend – there seems to be something akin to my own spirit, in him – in him I find all my artistic yearnings.
Evening in Park Sketching.
