Finished Work

Hi everyone. Thanks for stopping by. I've been getting ready for ART ON THE LAWN in Yellow Springs, Ohio next Saturday. It's a great little town and the last bastion of liberal thought in southwest Ohio. I've done the show 4 or 5 times and always do pretty well so I'm looking forward to going. Here are a few pots I fired this week including the slab dishes I promised to show you. I'm happy with them and hope to fire about 10 more later this week.The pictures are quick and dirty but you should at least get an idea of what I'm bringing. If you are in the area, stop by the show and say hello. Who knows, I might even let you booth sit for a few minutes. All the joy of being a vendor without the heavy lifting!

Just one additional thought. A friend has been having a rough week and probably has many more ahead. We all get there sometimes. It's hard to know what to say but the best words I can think of are " When life send you down a long dark tunnel and you can't see the other end, don't forget there is a light inside you, let it shine" When I was teaching, I would wake up at 5;30 put my feet on the floor and say" It's going to be a great day"  I would repeat it as many times as needed until I believed it. Later when the kids came into the classroom, I would give them each a big smile and a cheerful greeting. It didn't fix everything but it did make it better. Have a great week.
