nothing much happening...

Nothing much happening over the past week... Today I did figure out how to get to a historic graveyard that you can see from the road, but there is no clear access too... turned out that the only road leading to it goes ambles between a natural gas rig, the electric company and the access road to the main water supply of a town... essentially, they don't want people visiting the area. The graveyard is locked up behind a gate, but I stuck the camera through and got a pic of one corner...

also, while I was there, I took a pic of the first of the winecups I've seen blooming this year...

and some of the wild verbena...

Then I came home and made another tire planter. This is what they look like if you have the rims still attached... I'll be painting it Terra Cotta tomorrow.

This one is for my sister, who insisted that she wanted one. My neighbor down the street was walking through the alley when I was making this one, and asked me to make her one. Really, I've made these things since I was a kid... as I explained in a previous post... (click the tag, and you'll find it!) It never occured to me that it was a special talent. Now I'm wondering if I should make a few for the Flea Market... the price of pots is so high, I bet I could get 15 or 20 each out of these...


And that's about all the excitement I've had.
