Arrived and found Gail already in place and painting. She arrived early since she had to leave for an appointment before we all gathered at the end of the morning.

Went to get a picture of Rick but before I could do that Lisa jumped in to greet him.

Since Rick was there, I took a guess and figured I'd see David somewhere around.
 |
| David - he brings multiple hats (one for his easel and one for his head) |
 |
| See what I mean (David's easel hat) |

| Kristen |
Others that showed up during this time but I didn't get a picture of them were Sophie, Nita, Betty & Janel. They wandered off independently to parts unknown.
Nori also showed up, but is another one who had to leave early.

In fact, that's how I know for sure that was a picture of her.
Smiling LeAnne also arrived.

and, someone else who we haven't seen in ages but also did not make it to the group photo.
 |
| Barbra |
Several of the artists went over to the other side, whereas, I stayed near where we parked. The actual trail is on the other side and goes down to a red rock area (slickrock sort of hidden down at the end of the trail - hence the name "Secret Slickrock")

| Gail, LeAnne & Nori |
They were all looking across the way at the actual trail entrance.
Here is the painting lineup of those who were there till the end, except for Barbra who was still off to a spot unknown but her painting made it for the lineup (it too flew in a little late).

This was one of those times when it was a surprise to realize there were so many of us there since we were so dispersed.
Till next time!
