Imagine that you are an engineer and Mr. Feynman is going to teach you for 3 days. In similar vein, I am off to San Francisco for a 3 day watercolor workshop. My expectations are extremely high as to what I get out of it – by the sheer combination of an accomplished instructor, a painting conducive environment and 72 hours away from routine demands of life.

I am so excited, even this Caltrain ride is feeling special. I am on a life changing trip I suspect.
