What fun to find a rocket slide - so like one from my childhood - in Keosauqua, Iowa! Several of us slid down this beauty the evening before, so of course I had to paint it! This park is located in front of the historic Hotel Manning (pictured in the background on the left) along the Des Moines River. A cool breeze wafted up from the water as I worked, and children played nearby. There was even Misty's Ice Cream shop behind me on the corner! This charming place is a joy to paint - and I'm happy I have finally made it to Van Buren County to paint! Painting number 4231 in 4231 days, and this painting has a new home tonight!
