Trip to San Juan Bautista

Chaperoned on a field trip to San Juan Bautista mission. The buildings are - the mission church, Plaza Hotel, Plaza Hall, Settler's Cabin, Livery and Stable, Jail, Outhouse (single and double story) ... don't remember much. I was in charge of 3 girls and 3 boys, and we had to go on a "scavenger hunt" looking for a list of items. The girls behaved very much like girls - insisting on visiting all the gift shops, candy shop and ice-cream parlour. I wanted to join the boys and just sit out but I couldn't. Most of the time, I just stood outside waiting for the girls ... much like a husband waiting for the wife to finish her shopping ... needless to say, I konked off on the bus ride back to school. zzzz.

After three classes of watercolor painting

Busy Bee's beautiful creations pressured me to come up with some. Here are two paintings after three classes of watercolor painting under my (ever-expanding physical) belt. I had to stop going because of volunteer commitments. For some reason, most of the field trips and school events happen on the same day of the class so I am not sure if I will sign up again.
