Another pumpkin... but it's not just about a pumpkin.
Notice the work on the cloth. This is a still life you can keep out all year, not just fall.
Today was my dental implant day. All went well. I came home and was able to continue painting.

I wanted to get a few pumpkins painted before the season is past!
I got all the tents packed up for the season. Linda has been busy in the studio all day trying to catch up.
First, a huge thank you to everyone who made our Backyard Open House a success. I know it is not like our usual open house but we made it work. We ended up closing early on our last day with storms coming in. We got all the paintings in on time but had to leave the tents up. After 11 long days we needed a bit of time away! We headed up to spend time with Abbey and Ben at their cottage in the Catskills. It was peak leaf time however it was mostly dusky yellow. We still enjoyed it.
Monday we went to Opus 40. Well worth a stop.
The kids were working from home the rest of the week so we entertained ourselves!
Tuesday we took the tandem to the Ashokan Rail Trail for a 11.5 mile out and back ride. Nice pretty flat with nice scenery for a total of 23 miles. Then we headed into Woodstock NY for lunch. Woodstock was packed! Cute town.
Here is my tandem buddy. I don't know how she does it. She had not been on a bike since August and just hops on and does 23 miles...
Wednesday we planned another bike ride. The Wallkill Valley Rail Trail. We started with breakfast at Village Coffee in Kingston NY. Great omelettes. Then we found our parking lot in Kingston. Rode 13 miles to New Paltz. This was a more interesting ride, some curves, some hills, bridges and tunnels. Lunch at Clemson Brewing. Then 13 miles back. 26 miles total!
The kids got us binge watching Ted Lasso. What a well done series.
Thursday morning we left and headed to Elkton, MD. This was a long busy drive. We checked into Elk Forge B&B for two nights.
Friday was our niece Emily and Evan's beautiful wedding.
the happy couple:
Here is Beth (sister-in-law), my brother Carl, me, Linda and James (my nephew)
Saturday was back home to reality! We have tents to take down. Linda has a garden to clean up for winter. I want to start my painting a day again. If you could not get here for Open Backyard and want to see what I have just call or email and set up a time to visit the studio.
Saturday update...
Just to let you know, we rearranged the backyard to make the show a tiny bit more rain friendly. We squeezed the pie bar and snacks under the sales tent. Removed the food tent (one less thing for us to wrestle with). Then we moved some panels farther under the tent That makes it a little tighter to walk but less likely to have rain fall on one them.
SO... all this means we are trying to get our final day in. Day 11!
If it only drizzles we are ok. If it pours buckets we will need to pack up. And sometimes it is raining where you live but not in Lititz! If you want to be sure, give me a call or email.
That's the best we can do for now.
If you totally missed the show and want to visit, call and set up a time to stop in.

I wanted to practice painting waterfalls. Yes, even after 40+ years of painting I still need to practice. It takes a little skill to save the white paper for the water, painting around the falls. Then making it look like flowing water. This is Riedlbauers Waterfall near Round Top, New York, in the Catskills.
