Tree to Mode of Transportation

It was a nice day yesterday so when Gene was at PT I sat outside and sketched a big tree which I thought was on the list.  There was an old Crown Victoria parked there, rusty and gray, so I added that in.  I didn't make the front and back long enough.  That was from the era with big cars, the 70s maybe.  Gene had a Thunderbird at work and it was huge like a Cadillac.  

We came home and I had a cup from the coffee/crepe shop I found there in the same shopping center as PT Solutions.  I sketched that for "mug".  I decided to add color to the tree sketch and when I looked it up to see what number it would be I saw the "tree" was last Hunt.  Sigh.  There was however, mode of transportation and plants on this Hunt so made the sketch fit!

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 150  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-150-feb-23-mar-02.7777/
 

Number 2 plants and number 3 mode of transportation - in the Ohuhu sketchbook with Micron 03 and watercolor added at home.

Number 4 mug - my latte cup I saved from the new place in the shopping center with PT Solutions.  Tecúen, a coffee shop with crepes.  Coffee was good but they don't have low fat....In the big Strathmore watercolor sketchbook.  Pencil, watercolor, Micron pens, White gel pen ....Sketched at my footstool.

Baseball note:

Longhorns are at a tournament in Las Vegas.  They won their came against the Washington Huskies last night.  Final was Horns 10 and Huskies 9.  Starting pitchers did well the first Texas score was a home run by Jalin Flores in the 2nd and Huskies had a home run in the third.  Jalin had another home run at his next at bat in the 5th and then..... Horns had a big inning in the sixth with a 3 run homer and were up 9-1.  Craig and Keith were talking that with the 10 run rule in effect, the game was  out of sight or some such in the next inning and they could go to their hotel.  Then in the top of the 7th the Huskies made 6 runs including a grand slam with no outs. Texas got one run  back in the bottom.  Huskies got 2 more in the 8th and Texas held on.   It was interesting to say the least.  


They play Texas Tech tonight.  Rivals from the Big 12.  Hook 'em Horns.

I chuckled that you did an item from the last hunt. I've done that a few times. I make a list of items from the hunt that I know I can find out of the house and take the list with me. But then I forget to get rid of the old list and have several in my possession and can't remember which one is the current list. lol I like your big tree and the new "mug" you had for your coffee.

At least you make a list. I was using my memory and trying to find a tree I haven't sketched before like in the yard. I could have looked at my list, I had my phone with me of course.
