I took several Road Scholar trips this year.  One to the Northeast and one to the Northwest.  For a mid- western person like myself, seeing the ocean, being on the ocean was very exciting.  Sketching while on a sailboat was quite memorable.  Often I was able to begin a sketch while on the trip and then finish it at home.
