With temperatures in the 50's+ and a still, sunny day, I took Paco down to the Stonebridge and looked up towards Coastal Roasters Coffee Shop. Scene was a little more complicated than I first thought (hmmmm...) and before I knew it 3 HOURS had gone by - the light had changed, and we were DONE! I am so proud of Paco, he was the BEST plein air dog ever. I made a bed out of sheepskin (fake) and beach towels with 3 of his babies, a bone and a bowl of water (really, it was easier taking my little kids places). And he sat, sniffed the salt air, and lolled about, thoroughly enjoying himself. Only had to interrupt painting twice to pull cigarette butts out of his mouth - do people not think that's litter? Anyway, it was a Happy St. Patrick's Day!
