Sadna Passover Picnic
Since the community center was not available during Chol Hamoed, Shoshi suggested that we have the outing that has been in planning stage for a long time.... as a chance to meet together and paint in the open but for varying reasons was put on the table. This will be more of a social gathering rather than for sketching or painting.

Chol Hamoed (literally, “the weekday of the holiday”) refers to the “intermediate period” of the festivals of Passover and Sukkot. They are the days sandwiched between the beginning and ending holy days of both festivals. Passover is eight days long.
So last Tuesday, at 10 AM we all met at Shoshi's and drove to Shoham forest. Everyone brought something for the table and believe me no one went hungry!!!! Luckily we were early and were first at the tables in a lovely shaded spot.

We all got busy setting up the table with the "goodies" each had brought, but before we dig in Shoshi had another plan first... a little "tarbut" (culture) and had printed out several pages of interesting information about --ants-- stories and facts.

After our wonderful brunch we went for a short walk where there is an Archaeological site- Horvat Tinshemet - that was discovered in 1986 and excavated in 1996. It was already mid-day, not the best time for photographs but managed with the help of Photoshop to get some good shots!!! Can't go far here to find links to the past. Another interesting link.
