New Mexico

Great trip to Santa Fe, New Mexico.

So sorry that it's been so long

It is a good garden time. Lots of green beans, broccoli, tomatoes, now the carrots are big enough to eat. We've had lots of pears, apples, raspberries, (the quail and birds have enjoyed the strawberries...a bite out of each one.
Don continues to pick up trash on the beach always coming home with a full back pack.
In case you didn't see the pic on facebook Murray came for a ride.
My camera doesn't work and I'm using Don's which has me confused about loading the pictures on my computer. I don't know how to just put on recent photos...it loads all every time. I get frustrated and just go to bed.

Myla is One Year Old!

Latest pottery attempts

Unfortunately, Ryan's drawing on the plate did not come out, because of the 'clear' glaze that I put on top. It was not clear. That is a definite do over. Sophia's plate is ok, but I'd like to try again. The glaze was supposed to be lavendar but came out blue. Sophia's prints will be larger, but I'm hoping to take some clay next week and try again. Do one for Myla, too.
The gold that I added to the red pot was a success, I felt.

Don is doing 'house' work....painting the front side of the house. He does an excellent job.
Disaster bowl...too much glaze on the bottom, so it ran off and stuck to the shelf. An ongoing problem for me...Will I ever get it down? So no bowls to put in the Art in the Redwoods. The cups came out fine.
My purple broccoli plant is so lovely that I wanted to shown it off.

Happy 18th Brandon

Happy Birthday, Ryan
