Earlier this month I had a chance to go up to Ashtabula and take part in a sauna with my brother and his buddies. That's the sauna down by the lake in the panoramic photo. Since we couldn't jump in the lake, we just stood around for a while until we cooled off before we went back in. A great time was had by all. The sauna has a window facing west in it, so we had a terrific view of the sunset from within. Here's a couple sketches from my new Stillman and Birn sketchbooks created from the semi warmth of the cottage up the cliff. More on those new sketchbooks in the next post.
