Dear Students — Well, a few short days and we will once again be paintings in the beautiful Black Hills. We have about a dozen students signed up for the class — some old timers, some brand new.
Most of the students are staying at the Black Hills Mile Hi Motel in Custer, 244 Mount Rushmore Road, 605-673-4048. We are meeting there at 1:00pm on Monday to carpool to Legion Lake for our orientation session. Joan says they have some space in their rooms for two people to a bed if anyone wants to share (I am assuming this applies to female students, unless you are a really cute guy, in which case send a recent photo).
We may run into some cool, rainy weather on a day or two so bring appropriate clothes — I will explore some alternative painting sites if necessary.
There is still room in the class for a few more students, so if you have any friends who like to join us bring them along.
I am looking forward to a great week — see you soon — mark
