Back on the Trail

 

 

I’m back on Deer Woods Trail. Each season I have a lot of clean up. I pick up debris one trail at a time. After the trails are cleaned up, I start trimming the tree limbs that reach too low and far onto the trail. I leave the limbs and debris on each side of the trail to gradually rot away. Since it is a private trail, I don’t have to groom it, as public land trails do. Someday I would love to have a controlled burn, but I would have to have professionals do that.

 

The mornings on the trail are gorgeous now. As soon as I am through with the hard work I will get my paint box ready to set up for the painting season.  I have already picked out my first scene. I set up my box on the trail and tie a large heavy black garbage bag over it. My tripod is metal. Then I move it up and down the trail through the season. It works great.

 

Country painters love the trail……
