We sat in the car by the Indian River as Isaias was trekking north. I sketched this to the patter of raindrops and to “Fluffy” the comedian, being totally snarky about his show in Delhi.

A little storm sketch
We had Tropical Storm Isaias visit. It was supposed to be a hurricane but it sort of fizzled off shore for a while. We put the shutters up but we really didn’t need them. We only got a little rain.

I have also been addingContinue reading “Baby you can drive my car”
Postcards from the Edge
I decided to use the postcard as a spring board for a story. I am not sure where the story is going but there are some thoughts whirling about in my head about where I may take it.
Clue (less)
There were a few small objects on the items that could be used. I wanted to write a story about them but in the end I didn’t. I can still use them as fodder down the line.
Victorian Seaside Visit
I took two of the items and reminisced about Cape May.
