Geez, but I've Been Busy!

Working six days a week or close to it, in the shop haas kept me so busy that I only find a few minutes before I leave in the morning or just before bed to post. It might help if I were an actual typist and could write things once instead of having to go back and correct my errors. Summer is here with a vengeance and the temperatures are climbing into the 90's. It will be a hot time in the bead shop for the next few days!

We did manage to get to the county fair last Friday night where I made a dash for Randy's awesome crab cakes, Jake abandoned us for his friends and I was able to sway a bit to the live music playing on the grand stage. The evening was just about perfect for a stroll on the fairgrounds! I meant to take pictures of the animals but I was so enraptured by the flowers that I only managed to photograph them.

Here are a couple of my favorites :




Soon summer crazy time will be over and I can get back to some serious studio work. A friend has promised me the use of his plasma torch and I hope to be cutting metal by October! That will be great fun. I am already bursting with ideas.....

( Incidentally, if you come to Tucson in 2013, I will be BACK at my original Windmill Inn location with a new promoter running the show. The show will have a different focus and I can not even begin to tell you how exciting that is! Stay tuned for updates on this very beady blog! )
