    It is hot here in Ocklawaha, Florida.  I found a wonderful place, Juniper Springs, to paint

and cool off!  A 80$ membership fee allows me access to all the local springs.  I am lucky to have

Juniper Springs 10 or 15 minutes away from my cottage. It is an oasis!  I think the water

temperatures are always 68 degrees.  The top painting shows the main spring or vent.

The color is a beautiful blue that somehow, I can still make with my limited four colors.

The second painting was done on a more cloudy day.  I really like how that cumulus cloud

turned out.  I waited till it moved to the right location.  A young lady was asking me questions

and videoing me while I painted.  I had a great time.  The ice cold crystal clear water is so refreshing.

There is a turtle who comes up for air a few times a day, crawfish, and a swamp bird that hangs out

in the water.  Two young boys captured the swamp bird in a minnow net and had it by it's neck.  

The swamp bird escaped and seemed up phased by the assault.  I was glad to see the bird unharmed.

It is always sunny here in Florida.  I am grateful for a nice cool cottage with the lake view.

   Festus is always doing something funny.  He was sitting on top of my head but then he

slid off and put his big paw over my ear.  He is doing very well and so is Miss Kitty.  Violet, 

my pretty red golden retriever in Maine, is doing great too.  Good night.
