Saturday was a day off so yesterday we went in to work and today as well. Started yesterday by checking out our new kiln after its first firing. No comment for now. Some issues we’ll talk to Plainsman and Shimpo about then we’ll tell all. Suffice it to say we are not totally happy.
I pugged "mug pugs" for Cindy yesterday and she threw three dozen mugs then went on to other items. I started on slabs. We are getting back into the routine.
Today was a continuation. Cindy trimmed some items she had thrown , I pugged, did some more slabs, took pictures of the new kiln to send to Plainsman and Shimpo, then I went and did some "voice over" work for our DVD producer Chris Craig for a project he is working on. Cindy and I both finished up about the same time so called it an evening.
Tomorrow we are to meet the mayor in the afternoon for him to sign his pots. Still several unsigned ones from the "Empty Bowls " group to get done soon as we have to bisque and glaze fire them before the big luncheon on the 26th.
I haven’t forgotten about my promise to post some pictures of our tour of Plainsman Clays. Just have to find the time and get the pictures edited and sized. I also have to get to photographing the product for the web site.
The local radio station, K Rock which had the Pay for Play weekend to raise money for hurricane relief raised over $50000! Lots of people wanting to help. Good to see.
Tomorrow promises to be busy as we get the kids back to school and we hit our schedule in earnest, so…
nite.
