I'm getting ready to do a lot of travel sketching - going to Portland, ME, for a quick weekend with a high school BFF for The Most Amazing Weekend Ever. Her daughters and husband are out of town so we are planning on bookstores, pretty scenery, and Melissa McCarthy movies. And for me, sketching! After that, heading to Porto, Portugal for the 2018 Urban Sketchers Symposium! I plan to post about the sketching supplies I'm taking before I go, so keep a lookout for that. All of this summer travel has me thinking about last summer when my sister and I went to New York together for the second time - our first time to go together was 2012. We stayed in Lower Manhattan and got to have a very late lunch at Les Halles. Thankfully, since apparently it's closed now. I made Katherine go shopping at Uniqlo, then took her to Boqueria to make up for it. Katherine and I sketched together on the High Line. It was SO MUCH FUN. I really like going to museums with my sister. She pays close attention but is always ready to be silly. Always tough to say goodbye after a fun trip, but we plan to go back to NYC together in a few years.
