I just got back from visiting family in North Carolina. We had great weather and a peaceful, relaxing time with plenty of sleep, food and games, including some exciting rounds of Battleship with my kids.
On the way back we flew from Charlotte to Seattle via Chicago. Above is the American Eagle plane we took on the first leg of the trip. My European-born mindset is still amazed that a little plane like this one that makes a 2.5 hour route can be called a 'commuter jet'. In that amount of time you've flown through several countries in the Old Continent. The whole trip took about 12 hours when you add driving time to and from the airports, going thru security and a 3-hour layover in Chicago.
Urban Sketchers is a network of artists around the world who draw the cities where they live and travel to. We have this blog, which is by invitation, and a 
If you want to start your own USk blog and connect all urban sketchers in your city, here's how to go about it:
1. Get a group of a minimum of 3 sketchers together interested in launching an USk blog for your city. 2. Send your names and e-mail addresses to urbansketchers at gmail dot com with a brief paragraph stating your interest in launching the blog and how you plan to keep it fresh and engage your community. You will be the blog's administrator and will be expected to run it following the rules of the group. A blog that becomes a showcase of drawings made from photos or doodles will obviously not fly. 3. We'll create the blog and give you full access to it. You'll be able to invite people to participate, personalize it with your own flag, add links and more. So, what are you waiting for? Get your fellow citizens out to sketch!

Nice !!!
Makes me fell like traveling, what I've missed the past months...
And I recognize the European point of view about traveling in the US...
sigh, flying is a drag. I am dreading the flight to the States for Thanksgiving holidays.
Nice drawing! I was similarly amazed, when traveling through Europe, at how easy it was to "pop over" from one country to another.
Excelent the drawing perspective.
I really like how the shape takes over the page.
