Art & Inspiration The Sunday Night Shortie

Dawn at the Lakes

The dawn swept across the landscape. Dusted blue skies, and clouds bathed in the orange and a pink glow. We woke from our surplus tents and layers of wool blankets. Jake had a fire going early and a pot of coffee was percolating. Ned, Jinx and I walked to the roadster.
I stood beside her. Concentrating on the hardened dry lake ahead of me. I took a hard drag off of my Lucky Strike.
Jinx saw the look on my face. He knew.

"Say, man- it's going to be a great day."

And it was.

 

Love it!

 

Great read and that painting is beautiful. Someone needs to build that.

 

Great painting. It speaks to me.

 

Thanks everyone. The artwork is by the great Tom Fritz.
