Lakeside
Lots of sail training takes place on the lake in Kingston. I love watching sailboats. Such a great symbol for freedom. We once knew a family who packed up their 2 kids(aged 8 & 10) and their golden lab and went on a year long sail from Montreal (leaving via the St.Lawrence seaway)and down the east coast of North America to the Caribbean. I was amazed. I couldn't imagine 2 kids and a dog in a car for more than 2 hours, let alone in a tossing and heaving small sailboat. But I was impressed. I get seasick really easily so sailing doesn't appeal for me! But I love watching them from shore.

Sally I just love both this painting and the beautiful farmstead painting that precedes it. You have a fantastic loose style going on with them both. Great work!!!
