Mt. Battie


I hiked to the top of Mt. Battie and sketched the tower yesterday with my badass little dog. While I was sketching the sky was spitting a cold rain and three teenage boys were exploring around the tower. One boy read aloud from a plaque at the base of the tower to the two who climbed to the top -
"All I could see from where I stood
Was three long mountains and a wood;
I turned and looked another way,
And saw three islands in a bay."

Camden Harbor



I'm testing out my sketching kit for a hike I have planned in a month or so. I walked down to the harbor and had a sandwich while I sketched this scene. There's a feeling of spring. Not many boats are in the harbor. And this one looks ready to take it's coat off and get out there
