Out to the “Big Woods” painting –
A cool cloudy day with only rare intervals of sunshine – Still a lot of “color” in the woods. My theme – the last yellow leaves fluttering down to a leaf-covered woods floor, contrasted with the grim bare trees of November.
Home for supper – baked beans with pork – Evening B & I food shopping –
