Moving logs

| | Comments (0)
We recently purchased two log cabins from a couple we know. They had disassembled the cabins and stored them under tarps here in town. The smaller of the two (16'x28') will be a new painting studio for Lee when we move to our new place. The larger one (18'x34') will eventually be a residence for us. They are both quite old and came from around here in the nineteenth century.

The kids who live next door to where the smaller cabin was stored came over to help us move the logs. The two smaller ones were fun to have around. The largest boy was actually very helpful. Pictured are Lee, Wyatt, J.C. and Tyler.

The logs are now stored in the orchard on our new place close to where the studio will stand.

What the heck?

Hi, I am back. Some time ago an evil cyber nerd ate my blog. It appears that, for now, the "Potter's Journal" I have kept for the past few years is gone. Oh well. Lessons in non-attachment.

As the blog was disappearing I was in preparation mode for my last commercial river trip of the season. I launched September 14 on the Colorado River and ran 13 days through Grand Canyon. It was a great trip. The crew were all geezers. The youngest was 53 and the eldest was in his late fifties. It was nice to have that much maturity and experience on board.
A week later I launched again on the Colorado from Moab, Utah for six days in Cataract Canyon with no one else except my sweetie, Lee. That was the trip of a lifetime. More to follow on that.
Back in Spring City I am now busy clearing out this year's garden and settling into fall pottery making. My holiday sales are only six weeks away. Whew!
