Some days you get it right.  Today was one of them.
We were off to the market early because Steven was
buying apples for applesauce.  I only like MacIntosh
apples, but I do like Steven's applesauce made from
various varieties.

After some time in the studio, we went out to our favourite
park.  There is a heavy wind and rain warning for tonight,
so we wanted to see the leaves before they were blown/rained off.
The lake (Ontario) was rough with gorgeous high waves,
smashing in 20 foot bursts against the rocks at the shore.  It was
mighty cold, but we went to the pond, which was a bit sheltered
from the wind, and fed the ducks.

Then back home and more time in the studio.  I am quitting
for the night with the sound knowledge that I love
painting and will paint again tomorrow.

Have a doing what you love day.
