Hello PAAC Friends

Your thoughts please?

What would you think if we sometimes chose areas that require fees? There are endless options that we have that do not require fees. I am having no troubles at all finding paint outs for us. Including some of the areas that require fees would open some great options to us as well. We can consider Lory State Park, Boyd Lake State Park, Horsetooth Reservoir down by the bank, Devils Backbone iconic red mountain ridge, and Carter Lake with the sail boats just to name a few. I wouldn't choose a Fee area very often at all, just when a special place that is unique and exciting comes up for us to paint. They are usually around $10. I will let you know they require a parking fee. 

Please let me know of this thought. 

Change of Painting Location for Friday 11/8

This Friday, 11/8 9am We will be Painting at Oxbow Natural Area, Loveland. 

Attached are pics. It is also the Hidden Hogback Trail. Heading West on Hwy 34 (Eisenhower), still in Loveland, turn left onto Rossum Dr. The sign for Oxbow is on the Right but parking is on the Left. They are parallel parking slots, so if you pass them and go around the roundabout to come back, it will be easier to park.  We will paint on the East side of the parking spaces. The river is on that side. 

We were going to paint at Soderberg Open Space and Trailhead but it is a parking fee area. The area is beautiful with red sandstone cliffs, abandoned cabins, and beautiful scenery. 

Before we choose to paint at a fee area I wanted your thoughts. 

Friday 11/15 9am Red Fox Meadows Natural Area, Fort Collins

1810 S. Taft Hill Rd, Fort Collins

This place is a natural area with unique trees. It will look great with snow on the ground. 

11/22 TBA

11/25 Thanksgiving 

Look Forward to Painting With You! :)
