August 26-30, 2024 Fort Collins, Colorado

 Cooled down to 80 and partly cloudy.



I was biking, turned around and saw this behind me. Sunset. 



The Cosmic Clam. I made the center part in a class about working with curves. I added the border to it here at home. It a bowl is 10 x 10 x1inches. Kind of funky, but I like the colors. Blueberries and Cream. Cobalt blue and white bowl. 91/2 x 9 1/2 x 1inches. 



A new piece of combed glass. Sunset tonight.



John took me out to a lovely dinner. On the way back he was hot and decided that sitting in the middle of the fountain would be a good cool off. He only had a few splashes on him and it was cooler. Working on this piece. The center is a piece of combed glass the border is dichroic glass and slices of another combed piece. 12 inches in diameter



Another new masterpiece in progress. This needs the edges coldworked and then slumped in a bowl mold. Judy and James, friends from Shoshone came to visit on their trip through Colorado. Great to see them.



The new kayak racks- Thule hullavators- were installed today. There is a hydraulic shock in it that just lifts and lowers the kayaks. Much easier on a tall vehicle. I finished dying pine needles for baskets this winter. Black red, orange, cocoa brown, truly green, dark green, purple, royal blue, and navy blue. Lots of possible baskets there. 



The piece I combed last night. Came out pretty funky.  John's  sister Maggie ,son Ryan and Dennis are in town for a visit. Nice to see them,



John and his sister Maggie. After dinner at Ginger and Bakers. Ryan, Maggie, John, Sue and Dennis. Nice dinner and good visit.



Maggie dancing in the blue light downtown. School of Rock in old town square tonight.


Rock music and the fountains in old town square.
