Starting the journey

My RV is a 2003 Minnie with a slide out that gives me enough room to work on up to 24" paintings indoors in unfriendly weather. In good weather I have my awning to give shade while outdoors for larger pieces. My recent purchase is an electric bike which I can travel on for short distances with my backpack to those plein air sites where you cannot park an RV.
I started my adventures in Pennsylvania where I parked in my parents' back yard for 3 weeks to get used to RV living and the maintenance aspects in a safe environment. Half of my friends are envious and the other half think I am crazy - usually divided down the middle between painters and non-painters. Finally leaving the comforts of the back yard, I took off for my first trip to Maine.
