I love coming to this prairie to paint! With beautiful vistas in every direction, the Jerry Smith Park is a gem for the Kansas City parks. I arrived with plenty of time to scout my location, and it didn't take me long. Hiking back to the car for my gear, I realized as soon as I saw my pochade box that I didn't grab my palette from the freezer. AGAIN! This is the absolute closest event to my house, so it only took me 20 minutes to drive home to retrieve it! With 20 minutes back, it cut my 2 hour quick paint down to an hour and 15 minutes. It was 5 minutes before start time when I realized the mistake! It was a beautiful morning and I did thoroughly enjoy myself, once I had my paints. I will now leave myself a note when all I pull from the trunk is my palette! Another lesson learned on my daily plein air adventure! Painting number 1963 in 1963 days.
