My version of Holly Jolly

 

I was greeted as I came through the door "Hi Barbara Rogers!" One of my old friends thus introduced me to everyone else. I'd spent 12 years as a member of the Community Clay Studio there, so I did know a lot of people!


Loved these outside decorations. I didn't go through all the shops which stayed open late, offering free drinks and cookies in lots of them. I had had a full day and was running out of steam.


A favorite flower which keeps showing up everywhere!



Friend, Fred Feldman made the "don't sit on me chair." He has worked in wood for many years, after retiring as a ceramics teacher...and now makes some clay things still.

There were many beautiful pottery objects for sale in the downstairs auditorium. And then the upstairs gallery had a great show of student's work. I'll feature that over on Alchemy of Clay for the next few days.

Today's quote: 

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, 
while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
—Lao Tzu

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
