We met at the library of the Univeristy of Washington at Tacoma. It was such a bright, sunny day that I didn't want to sketch inside. Since I'd missed most of the brilliant fall color while traveling, I also wanted to catch what was still there.
There were two new sketchers. I'd guess it was about half and half as far as sketching inside the library our outside.
First sketch is looking up the hill near the U bookstore, as viewed from the light rail stop across the street.
Next sketch was on the walkway between buildings. The railroad signal initally caught my attention. While there are still tracks embedded, they aren't used. There is also an art installation on the wall: "All the Rivers in the World, Tacoma" by Vaughn Bell, 2019. "All the river names included...were given by members of the UW-Tacoma community in 'river gathering' workshops. The Lushootseed word for the Puyallup river is located at the mouth of the river and the word meaning 'mountain that is always snowy' is located at the headwaters."
