Field Trip



Ten Squares, 2006, Oil on Panel, 24x36






No real post today. Within two days after I left a comment on Steve's blog that I avoid going on my kid's field trips "like the plague", my son came to me and asked if I would come along on a field trip with his favorite class, Language Arts. I tried to say no but he got me with the puppy dog eyes and since I am usually more of an embarrassment to him these days, I figured I better take advantage of these requests while I still get them.

So I am off to spend the morning at a cemetery (they are studying local history) with a gaggle of sixth graders.

When my daughters were that age I dreaded going on some of the field trips. Once we got there it was actually fun. Hope you enjoy yourself. BTW, nice painting.

We were headed to Fundy(hopewell rocks)I'm kinda disapointed :)

Yikes, this is my idea of hell, that and kid's birthday parties. But you are smart to take advantage of him wanting you around while he still does.

Take a camera.

Meno, I meant to take the camera but forgot.
