Wildwood Park, Saratoga, Thursday, December 5, 2019


Our main reason for painting at Wildwood is the park's beautiful tree lined Saratoga Creek, and it is not much of an attraction when it's dry! So we couldn't believe our fortune when it rained all last week and stopped just in time for our Thursday Paintsite.
For more information on the park, please refer to the following link:
