Travis Workshop - Day 3



Towpath




While everyone was hard at work at Peter's workshop, I snuck off for a long walk on the towpath along the Delaware Canal. These are a few of my photos.

Travis Workshop - Day 2

End of a good day

Rice's Flea Market

Tables of murano glass pendants

I slipped away from Peter's workshop to explore Rice's Flea Market -- Socks, nail polish, purses and everything else you may or may not need. I think it is the hottest day of the summer!

Deer Friend

Hello

Good Bye

This is my deer friend who is always hanging around. I used to worry about how the deer ate everything that I planted. I no longer worry about it and enjoy their presence.

The Road Not Taken

Take it!

I walked down this hill through the tall grass on the left, unaware of the road on the right. When I turned around to take this photo, I immediately thought of Robert Frost's poem, The Road Not Taken. I hadn't read it in years until this morning and now I wonder if it is about individualism, as I had always thought, or about the decisions we make in life, one way or another. Read it again and let me know what you think.

Moss Mugs

A trio of Moss Mugs

Moss mugs on the go

Happy Fourth of July weekend! I've been making these moss mugs for friends and family and now they are available at The River Gallery in Narrowsburg, NY and also at The Upper Mill Mercantile in Milford, PA. A pair of Moss Mugs look great outside on a table between 2 chairs or as a fun center piece for your patio table. They're easy to take care of and love shade to partial shade. Ask for them by name, "I want a Moss Mug!"
