Spring Visitors to Grimstone.

Comments

Is this a Camping area? It looks like they just set up Roadside, and did laundry! Your work, as always, is Super, BTW.

I'll bet Denis. Did they not challenge you? We have a small caravan but would never pitch like they have. Good study though.

Skylar, I note with pleasure, the comments you have been making about my submissions to the painters online web site. Thanks a bunch! I note that you live in the USA which probably accounts for you asking about the caravan set up by the roadside in Grimstone. It is not a camp site - just a roadside verge! Itinerant travellers who live in caravans, move around the country staying for a few days usually in a place like this before moving on. People living in houses close by do not normally welcome such visitors.
