The fam and I were lucky enough to visit the little resort town of Bahia Feliz on the island of Gran Canaria this past week. It was hot (38 C/ 100 F). My wife and kids had a blast. I got to do my favorite things. Yes, I got to swim in the ocean, enjoy a beer at 11am, and read by the pool (Heat 2), but my most favorite thing was drinking coffee, listening to music, and painting on our little porch overlooking the beach.

I only brought one little watercolor set with me and small postcard sized watercolor pages, but the lack of options seemed to make things easier and I banged out a painting a day in an hour or two.

As is customary on my travels, I also brought my running shoes and enjoyed seeing a bit more of the island.

I could definitely get used to this. ❤️
