Meet the Neighborhood

Deb and I go for walks around the neighborhood pretty much every day, weather permitting. Our neighbors are wonderful. We often stop to chat and learn how everyone is doing. The children and pets are particularly photogenic in my/our view, and it is with great pleasure that I present to you several photos of the neighborhood children and pets, with an occasional adult thrown in for good measure.

I don't have photos of all the children. I may add more photos of neighborhood kids or pets to this post or another post in the future. I should add that there are a lot of babies and small children on the block. We think it's something in the water.

Pottery and Demo at the Farmer's Market

My wife, Deb, does pottery; today she demonstrated her throwing prowess at the local Ashland Farmer's Market, and also sold some of her wares.

Everyone loves to watch a potter!  There is something truly amazing how she crafts a beautiful bowl from a lump of clay.  As you can tell from the photos, children and adults are enthralled by watching this process.  Deb had some help from one of her students, Tonya, who also threw some pots.

If you'd like to learn and see more about Deb's pottery, go to Debra's pottery site: dagworks.com.

Practiced Hands Make It Look All too Easy


That's Really Neat How You Do That
