The sun doth shineth!

Here in northern California we have experienced such a strong rainy season that sunny days are noticed and celebrated. Yesterday it rained. It rained, in fact, most days last week.

But today there is sun, the temperature is mild, song birds are singing their little hearts out and the red-shouldered hawks are on alert from high posts keeping a careful watch on Sonoma and Napa Counties - I know because I was in both places this morning.

I was drawing in church again this morning, a habit I'm not trying to change. Cassidy was at my feet and only her butt end was visible. We're puppysitting her for Canine Companions for Independence and will probably become her puppyraisers. I added parishioners as the church filled, practicing overlapping and perspective along the way.

And then we listened to Garrison Keillor on NPR on the way home.
