After sketching the Wood Storks, Rob and I drove over to the golf club on Spring Island. To one side of the club house are tabby ruins from the original plantation home.

I'm giggling, Rhonda! Thanks 🙂
You brave girl, going out in this heat and creating something beautiful, while I sit on the sofa reading and trying to stay cool. Lovely view with that white-hot sky.
