TOO WINDY FOR FLYING

Day 3. I moved to a lovely campground up in the trees and decided to take a day off from the group, drive around, when I was ready to get going instead of leaving at 7.30, as I had the other 2 days. In case anyone is looking for a campground I can heartily recommend Timberlake, at Home Valley WA.
I painted this in the park at Bingen, using a tree as a wind break. I think my rendition of the trees in the wind are not nearly leaning enough. I had an annoying bystander who proceeded to lecture me on how the trees were one sided because of the wind and that usually it was a favorite spot for hangliders, but today was too windy. At least he didn't tell me that his aunt was a really good painter.
