My Journal

Not nearly finished, but working on it after a year (almost) has passed. I wanted to document my trip to the northwest and Alaska with my friend Peg.. so this is some of what I have so far.. 
  This is for me, but as I always say,  your welcome in my world. 
I'll finish and bind the book myself .. 

  



 Leaving from Tampa Airport. 

In  Vancouver, Wa. taking a 3 hour  Amtrak trip for 3 days in  Seattle. Pikes Market and a taxi to a real Dick Blick Art Store.. 
Do you think 3 hours was enough time?  

 The Chihuly Glass Art Museum.  An amazing artist.



Being on the Star Princess for eight days was a dream..



A w/c sketch of Juneau from the ship.
"Stuff"

Glacier Bay from the ship..
Back in Wa. state and a visit to the Scented Farm where all oils, soaps,  lip balms etc. are made from the lavender grown there.. 
  So far that's some of what I have documented of my trip. 
Would I go again..?   You betcha !!! BJ

  2. Beautiful watercolor. Sounds like you had a lot of fun.
    Imagining being in a real Dick Blick store feels like being frozen in time.

  3. That trip looks fantabulous and I am so glad you got to get away. Always wanted to do an Alaskan cruise myself. Maybe someday. Love your watercolor landscape of AK from the ship too!
