What a weekend! Five of us set out Saturday morning at 6:00am from Maryville, Illinois for the Louisiana, Missouri Plein Aire Paint Out. We ladies decided we could write a book about our mishaps from our two cars being stopped at a speed trap in Foley, Missouri to the tune of $187.00 each, to finding our way in the dark to our evening lodging destinations. But we can still say we had a wonderful experience. The Louisiana Chamber of Commerce organized this first ever paint out for their town and there was great community participation from a warm welcome to box lunches, a nice wine/cheese awards event to lodging in the homes of residents. To top it off, my little painting of 3rd Street was purchased for $100 at the evening event.
