Dear Sandi - This is the most , just the most! Sincere thanks for sharing your filming with us, and spreading your happiness far and wide. Here in the Canadian Rockies we are already facing a long winter and your time in England was just what I needed to boost my incentive to paint. Your spontaneous paintings are richly beautiful.

So glad it gave you some incentive to paint 🙌

Sandi what a great video for me to indulge in this morning. I was so happy to see you in Devon. This is where my dad was born who just turned 80 last week. He often talks about Devon with such love in his heart. You were able to show me the beauty that he so often talks about to this day. He loves to paint the landscapes of England even though he has lived in Canada for 40+ years. His heart is still there. Thank you Sandi.

I’m in the UK & my Godmother lives in Topsham! I’ve been in that bird watching hut! It’s called an estuary (river mouth that fills with sea water with the tides) I TOTALLY get why you struggle with the pronunciation of quay! I think the cord you pulled isn’t a fire alarm - if there is a long string in a toilet it’s an emergency alarm for disabled people who fall onto the floor in the toilet & need assistance to be helped back into their wheelchair

Topsham was sooooo pretty!

@helencolville7759 8 ай бұрын

I had a feeling that you were going to visit England and was so excited when I saw this video pop up! Devon and Cornwall are my favourite parts of the country, though I don't get to visit very often as I live up in the north of England. What a great experience for you and Grady - looking forward to part 2!

I pulled a string like that in a bookstore bathroom in Rome, thinking like you did it was to flush. I soon had three worried employees outside the door, asking if I was okay 😂 It’s been so inspiring watching these videos from your trip.

Setting off the fire alarm at church…so funny!! I would have pulled that string too cause every British novel I read seems to have a chain flush toilet! I think you guys were brave to rent a car…driving on the other side of the road…I don’t think my dyslexic artist brain could figure that one out! Such a fun vlog! Thanks!

So many favorite moments from this video, especially your incredible paintings and enthusiasm to make nonstop art. However, my ultimo favorite scene is of the flabbergasted, old dudes giving you the stink eye and you were teflon and kept your joyful mood. 😂 (Also, you are my hero for painting in windy conditions. I would have wimped out.)
