Second day of Fall, still in the 100's, but that will change. Regardless, I've painted here before, but this time there were some wonderful colors on the trees and the Prickly Pear was bearing fruit.

Finally had a chance of rain on Saturday. I headed down south towards Driftwood and got this painting finished just before it poured.

With the wild fires burning in the distance, I painted this at Old Settlers Park on Monday, Labor Day. It was a cool 92 degrees, much better than the 100's we've been having!
Sure hope they contain the fires soon. So far, 34,000 acres and 785 homes have been claimed.

Below The Dam

I took advantage of the breezy Saturday and went to my favorite haunt to paint. This is below one of the small dams in the park. The dam is under construction, hence the brown "dirt" in the background.
