My Monday night class has been focused on “enclosed forms” lately. So we combined that with a little Christmas in July!!!… and Halloween too, but that doesn’t have the same ring to it?!!!

My Monday night class has been focused on “enclosed forms” lately. So we combined that with a little Christmas in July!!!… and Halloween too, but that doesn’t have the same ring to it?!!!
Another stunning sunrise morning. A little cooler with a lot less humidity… it was so pleasant pedaling this morning! Lots of clouds doing cool things on the horizon.
And once again… a sunrise skyshow this huge
needs a “huge-er” panoramic photo to show it off!!!
Another crazy-cool skyshow this morning!!! The humidity was a bit out of control… literally dripping with sweaty after just minutes of riding!!! But once your drenched… you can’t get “more’ drenched, right? And it was well worth it… as the sunrise was SPECTACULAR today!!!
It was another productive week at Summer Camp. I had younger 8-10 year olds for Wheelthrowing & Handbuilding Camp. That’s a lot to accomplish in just five days. I two great groups of kids & they ROCKED it!!!
And while the skyshow was happening over the lake, the City skyline
was punctuated with a few puffs of clouds easing through.
I couldn’t decide which panoramic photo was better… so here’s another one!
You choose…
And sometimes a bigger “skyshow” just calls for a BIGGER panoramic photo!!!
t was very “still” along the lakefront today. No waves. No wind. And not a lot of people out… as it was still quite warm & sweaty!!! But with a skyshow like this?… STUNNING in its simple serenity!
Another wonderful night of musical theater tonight. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen RENT live on stage… and the production tonight reminded me just how much I love it!!! I’m here for it… all of the “Seasons Of Love.”
