Just Like The Old Days

Back before the advent of the smart phone and the e-tablet, I spent my time at the coffee shop (or waiting at the DMV, etc.) drawing in my pocket sketchbook. Nowadays, I find myself reading on the Kindle app, or surfing the interwebs for something, instead.

Today, I not only accidentally left my phone at home, but I got to the coffee shop at a time when no one I knew was there. Except for the 15 minutes that Mark Overly sat down with me, I was alone at my table, with no electronic connectivity.

So, out came the sketchbook, complete with the new cover I ordered, a few days ago:


It's a map of Colorado. Well, the southern half, anyway..

And, just like the old days, I sipped my coffee and doodled. My drawing skills are obviously rusty, but I had a good time just putting some ink to paper, anyway.

I might have to "forget" my phone, more often...

    Sometimes it's good to get back to the basics. I've been trying to use pen and paper more often.

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.

Anonymous comments are still gladly accepted.

So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
