last fort visit of 2009

just before heading to the east coast i went out to ye olde fort for one last visit before the new year became the now year. things were dark and green and mossy and mushroomy. california winter....a bit different from things here on the east coast where it's 5 degrees. i was just outside doing some watercolors and the paint actually froze on the page before it could be spread. when i brought the picture inside it thawed and started to run. winter wild.







somehow this little dude found her way out through the woods and now seems to stand as the resident fort guru...ask her your deepest questions in your softest voice.
