William Theodore Van Doren, SORROW AND SOLACE AT SCOUT MOUNTAIN (Sunset from Scout Mountain, Corydon, Harrison County, Ind.) Oil on watercolor block, 13 x 19.
I had come to Indiana, with my brother Steve and our spouses, because my sister, Emily, six years younger, had very unexpectedly died on the 20th. The great, and greatly bereaved, people at Scout Mountain Winery, where she worked part-time, hosted a small party for us, her daughter and some of Emily’s wonderful friends – wonderful to her and to us.
