Discovery Road

On my way to work in the morning, I stop to admire this view.  Actually it’s mandatory, there’s a four-way stop right there, but it’s a great place to pause and see what the day will bring.  This particular morning was deciding whether fog or sunshine would win the day (fog was ahead for awhile, about ten minutes after this we were totally socked in, but it burned off by mid-day).  This is looking towards Uptown in Port Townsend WA, a hill of old trees and older houses overlooking the bay, watching as the fog rolls in and burns off, basking in the sunshine while we humans go about our day, going to work, talking to our friends, cooking our meals, walking our dogs, and painting our paintings.  “Discovery Road”, 30×40 oil on canvas.
