an infrequent repository of mostly new stuff
The show opening last night at The Bridge was a great success. Steady traffic all night, many folks showing up before the doors officially opened, and staying well past closing. Some local art bloggers and collectors in attendance.
Two pieces already have new owners.

This is what Sundays are for.
We used to do this all the time when the girls were home.
They’ll be jealous.

Her website and occassional blog is here:
I know a lot of guys who have wooden boats or Melonseeds, or both, and have artists for wives. Must have something to do with placing such a high value on aesthetics, even above more practical things. I can think of seven off the top of my head without even trying hard, guys that I know personally. Definitely a pattern to it.

One nice thing about a big loop in a river… It doesn’t take much driving to set up the shuttle to float it. Saves a lot of time.
On Sunday, we left Emily’s car at the ramp at Four Locks, then loaded up the boats and headed over to McCoy’s Ferry. It’s a short trip, but we passed through tunnels under two canal aqueducts and a really high train trestle to get there. The ramp at McCoy’s Ferry isn’t in great shape, but we got loaded and launched without too much trouble.

I live and work in a rural area. The views are awesome.
Lunch can be an adventure all its own.
Snowfall on Cedars
Thursday, they predicted up to 7 inches of snow for the whole region. Instead, we got three solid days of cold rain, then finally about an inch of snow here, and nowhere else. Enough to make things look nice.
A south wind warmed things up again, and everything’s been dripping all day. Shirtsleeves and snow.
