DUCKSTAMP DEADLINE

This was where Joy was, while everyone else was loaded in the van, ready to go to town. It was 4:15 pm on the day of the deadline to mail in our Junior Duck Stamp entries. Thirty minutes into town would get us there at 4:45, and the post office closed at 5:00. Joy really wasn't finished, but she had made a valiant effort. This was her first attempt at painting, and I had been gone to Atlanta and busy with school, housework, and the play. She didn't get much instruction until Adam stepped in and helped her. She's ready to start another painting right away though.
