As we scouted this high water area off the highway, I noticed a snake slithering nearby.  Gently pulling Teddy away, I steered her away from our friend.  She is definitely NOT a fan of snakes!  We set up and had to paint fast, because that light was fading fast.  The wildlife was out - I also saw a muskrat and another snake swimming in that creek before we called it good.  It is amazing how different this creek looks each year I return to it!  Always beautiful!  Painting number 2420 in 2420 days.

Morning at Rieboldt's Creek

I've been making the annual painting trip to Door County for YEARS, and I have only today discovered this spot!  After a fabulous morning of painting this glorious creek, I returned for an afternoon paint from the deep shade of the surrounding trees!  Encountered three striped snakes first thing, but they were harmless.  The locals say there are no poisonous snakes in Wisconsin!  Yay!  Painting number 2011 in 2011 days.
