So it was time to order clay, and rather then wait for delivery (and pay for it) I decided to pick it up myself. THE TRIP IS GORGEOUS. This drive brings tears to my eyes from the beauty. I know it sounds dramatic. But I can't help it. My clay is in Front Royal, VA and the drive there from Charlottesville is amazing. No interstates. Only a state highway and alot of windy country roads. It did me a world of good. It was the first of a couple of cooler days. The air was refreshing and clear. SO I was able to take Layla with me for company too.
Pictures while driving is not too smart. What you aren't seeing are the fields of Queen Anne's Lace (great for dyeing I hear but I couldn't find a good pull off to harvest some...) the rolls of hay and the cows and horses........
New clay means I have been working on alot of pots. Another baby commission, pots for a Farm Market and slowly preparing for THREE shows in October.
Pictures soon.....
