Mrs is finally off for a few weeks after being buried in work and her first semester of the nursing program at our local college. So, we had no major plans other than attending a kiln opening and sale at Hatchville Pottery. There were other artists there displaying their work for sale as well. We were mainly there for Hollis and his pottery but also ended up with several pieces by glass blower Bryan Randa. Talented young man.
The turnout on Saturday seemed to be very good, even requiring a detail officer to cover traffic at the intersection and monitor parking. The kiln opening was wonderful and it's fun to have all those people gathered in the studio watching and helping remove the pots. We purchased several pieces of pottery; all but one for ourselves.
A few shots from the studio.
It was wonderful to have a very local experience and see some faces I have not seen in some time. Today we returned with a gift of eggs for the Engleys and visited some more. Hollis was kind enough to send us home with a some local oysters that we will be partaking in very soon. Neighbors, especially good ones, are a wonderful thing.

Hey Barry, LOVE the Christmas pic! What a great Christmas card that would make. The pottery place looks great too. Thanks about the hats, I thought they were cute!
That sounds like a really neat day Barry. Neighbors with oysters?? I knew I was missing something living so far from the shore.
It was great to see both of you here, Barry. And we had your eggs for breakfast this morning. Patti, come on up to Cape Cod and we'll see that you get some good local shellfish.
