Stay Gold...

Professional Development... I teach 2D and I’m not a ceramicist so I haven’t touched a potter’s wheel since 1987. My colleagues are like “We want ACTUAL photo and video documentation of you on the wheel and YOU WILL get dirty!” This should be interesting.

Learning from THE BEST! Thanks, Tracey! 

This morning’s ceramics professional development was so 

much fun (and I didn’t even get that dirty).

Rest In Peace Suzanne Somers

because she was too vegan for me.”

Things I Saw And Did

I saw more than one brilliant winter sunset from a fantastic vantage point.

Scott and I shopped and then had a blast with Kristen (and many others) for her birthday...

Yes, this pretty much summed up the whole evening of food and fun.

I enjoyed looking at a cool vintage 1940s sailor (in ceramic form) from my friend Steve.

I was amused by some worn-out looking character cupcakes at a diner.

Scott played Bodhisattva on my couch as we watched movies.

I gleaned some wisdom from a print on the wall of a restaurant lobby.

I captured a sliver of sunset unretouched (above) and then tweaked and filtered it (below)...

I accepted an Instagram Photo Challenge whose subject line was "Timeless"...

I used it to take a few moments to commemorate some timeless (and precious) family artifacts.

I let the sun's warmth shine through my windshield despite the bitter arctic temperatures.
