Shenanigans at Shenanigan Flat

Isn’t that pretty? Sometimes I don’t think that my fellow bloggers realize how I access these beautiful scenes that I paint at. At this particular spot, I have been go down a steep trail often grabbing trees for stability. I pick my way down very carefully and often I worry that I might go sliding down the hill! So, I had this great idea that I could have my industrious son-in-law, Luis install a rope system for me. He is a tree climber and knows life saving knots and rope systems. Who else to call upon to help me?

I love this area and I am hoping that now I can safely access my favorite location in order to paint during the winter as well. See you all down at the river!

  1. So gorgeous – and no wonder it is called shenanigan as it sure takes shenanigans to get there! Lucky for you to have Luis and that great rope! What a great “knotty” 🙂 guy to do that for you! ❤
