I needed to pick up the two pieces that were hanging at the gallery Alchemy and Art in Amesbury and deliver one of them to the Marblehead Art Association along with two other pieces. I hate driving but figured Amesbury and Marblehead are both on the Northshore and I can drive to Amesbury and then to Marblehead in a morning. Imagine my shock when I realized that entire trip would involve over 3 hours of driving. Despite being a Massachusetts native I am completely clueless when it comes to driving or getting anywhere by car. It doesn’t help that I have a mortal fear of driving on highways. Just this past Monday morning as I was driving to my daughters to watch the girls, a torrential rain caused me to get off the highway and take a longer route. I am grateful for my Uncle and my Husband for assisting with art delivery. I made my Uncle and his wife a present today. It’s small but it was fun to just paint flowers. We all need to paint flowers now and then.
