On Top of the World (almost)


















I climbed to the top of the hill behind my house, the road is steep... very steep.
From the top you can look down on a nearby town, the same town that normally I look
up at from down in my valley.
A good way to make the most of a beautiful morning!

Glad that you made the climb. We are enjoying your painting and we aren't out of breath.

I was more worried about walking back down....very easy to slip and slide down the hill in a not very elegant fashion!
Thanks for the comments!
