Wednesday - Day Three - Watercolor class

I woke this morning to a clear, cloudless sky - beautiful, but not good for spectacular pictures.  Since we thought it was going to thunderstorm yesterday (it did not) a bunch of us went back into town to take more images for painting.  We took a lot of shots of the harbor, then hung around a bench in front of the bank, looking a little like monkeys on a log.

A huge bonus for Kathy and me was that we met the gentleman from Saugatuk who owns this great little Cape Cod on the harbor shore.  He was out mowing his lawn, we struck up a conversation and he invited us in to see the inside.  It started out as a log cabin and when he restored it on the outside he totally saved the log interior.  It is right out of House and Garden or one of those shows on HGTV.  SO neat!!
I didn't ask to take pitures of the inside because I thought that would be impolite, but I was so tickled to see it. 
I finished my first painting of this house.  I love it because of the flag on the garage out front and the lifesaver on the red door.  Also, the great flowers -  cosmos, snapdragons foxgloves and geraniums on the porch.
