After the third time we decided we'd have to take it out on the highway to... well, to do whatever cars do at high speeds to recharge their batteries, I don't know I'm not a car mechanic. Anyway we wound up driving up to Lake Macbride and I got some good practice doing nature sketches with my brush pen.


I disturbed a pair of geese that were trying to nest on the beach. They waded out into the water and floated in place a few yards away as I walked down along the sand.

They spent some time honking huffily at me as I drew them but when they decided I probably wasn't leaving they floated away.

This was apparently just a small part of the lake. Boats kept going by, though I couldn't really see where they were coming from or going to.

When we got back from the lake my car had started starting again, so it turned out to be a pleasant and productive afternoon.
I like these! Brush pens are nifty. You could make your car happy by driving to the park again sometime for more sketching.
