A Mudbuddy who also does jewelry

 Come toe the Tailgate Market any Saturday morning until almost Thanksgiving. Behind First Baptist Ch, but you'll see all the signs driving up Hwy 9/

Lots of fun earrings and pendants!

Better Potter Jones is the artist I'm sharing with you today. She says she's 39. I'm for that, as well as her energy and brilliant humor.

There's a nice fish platter in the top of this photo, with little orange fish floating around. Sorry I didn't capture it by itself!

Fun beads and pendants. (Bette says, you can tell I have a cat!)








Early in the Tailgate Market's day, a hot Saturday at the end of July, a family friend of Bette's talks with her and another Mudbuddy, Amelia (on left.)

Today's quote:
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed. -Carl Jung, psychiatrist (1875-1961)

    ...I'm not sure that I want to be 39, but perhaps feel like 39!

    That always looks like such a pleasant venue. At least, I think that is the one that I have seen before.

      It was a nice day. Earliest is best, before the crowd, and the opressive heat.

    I was 39 for a long time, maybe not as long as Jack Benny. Then my children passed me, and I had to raise my age.
