"Salish Sea Islet"

Once upon a few weeks ago 

the Linnyland painting adventure 

destination for a summery April morning was Port Renfrew.

In Victoria the sky was clear and the temperature

 was unseasonable warm,

 in Sooke there was a bit of "certain to burn off" fog,

 in Jordan River the fog was so thick that the only view was fog. 

And towards Port Renfrew?

So, boomerang plan for this Linnyland painting adventure; 

travel backwards, find a view and paint fast.

"Reefer"

Blue Moon Week in Linnyland included; 

studio time (stay tuned...), 

a wee Linnyland painting adventure where, 

as I zoomed in on an old ship 

(that rumour has, will be sunk to create a diving reef), 

the many "lookers" who wandered by included 

the trio of Lorenzo the dog, Blue Eyed Daughter 
and her Blue Eyed Father

 (who was a Robert Genn doppelganger if I ever saw one 

-- although I have no idea of Robert Genn's eye color) 

and who shared samplings of their freshly 

picked (dark blue) blackberries, a swimming adventure 

in the blue-green waters of Secret Lake with Otters, 

blue Dragonflies and a blue-grey Kingfisher, 

the scent of Sweet Grass, 

blue skies of swooping Swallows, 

a meadow of Queen Anne's Lace, 

more blue skies this time full of Turkey Vultures, 

and another swim under a blue sky in the blue-green waters 

of Not A Secret Lake

 and last night's orange Blue Moon!
