Yesterday, the Alamance County pleinair painting groups sponsored a paint out at Elodie Goat Farm. It was a perfect fall day that started with showers but quickly turned into a wonderful sunny day. About 20 pleinair painters showed up and thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent day and beautiful fall scenery. And as if that weren't enough to please us, we were treated like royalty with a gourmet lunch served in the dining room of the farm house of Elodie Farms. Dave, the owner was a gracious host and Nancy and Harley Brookshire are the best event planners that never cease to amaze us.
The picturesque setting was beautiful farmland with horses, donkeys, chickens and of course goats. They all demanded attention to be petted and some even posed the the artists. We even were serenaded by two musicians plucking out a little Bluegrass. It always wonderful to reconnect with friends we've met at previous events and meet new ones.
A great big thank you to Dave for having us out to visit Elodie Farms and especially to Nancy and Harley for making this the special event that it was. Can't wait until next year!
