Today started off a bit…chaotic. I’m used to chaos with kiddos, but I’m not used to having no water in the house.

Unfortunately, my systems were derailed today by frozen water lines. So I added a reminder to my calendar for next year to plug in the heat tape that prevents that from happening. The system has been optimized just a little bit, now.

That still threw my entire day off. I managed to get to the cabin and do some sketching today very quickly. Well, slowly, but I didn’t have much time, so I didn’t get much done. I’m trying to improve the accuracy of my eye, so I’m doing very slow, deliberate measuring, then checking my measurements against the photo reference. The red marks are where I was off.

This was a difficult exercise that I intend to repeat many, many times.
