Another Studio Visitor-Carole Reid

Some trades I did with carole while she was visiting . .
Carole Reid ( via Nanaimo) dropped by today and brought her daughter and friend along. She came bearing offerings for the Shrine Project . . . Seems that the room of All Sorts is a fascination for many . . even met someone on the street that remembered a coversation where I mentioned the room and that I was collecting a number of things . . Donald Duck among them . . she is bringing in a velvet Donald Painting tomorrow.

Onward into the night as I try and sort through the many things that need doing before Saturday and the Paint In.

Thanks again Carole . . loved getting to hear of your Newfoundland family and sharing stories . . .great seeing you today.

Crossing the great waters . . .

A 4 AM rise before the sun and 6 AM bus ride to Vancouver . . . Work Work Work and another bus back . . though missing one by less than 2 minutes wasn't the most pleasing of news . . deep breath and reach into the back pack . . . I always have a crochet hook and cotton with me . . so time is never wasted . . .
The sunset was a pleasing end to the day . . . It was so pleasant with the warm winds as the ferry wound it's way through the gulf islands.

Gearing myself for the "Moss Street Paint In" next weekend . . getting ATC supplies together since our station is a passport stop for the young artists along the route. Mailarta has fabrics draped about the studio . . sewing soon to happen . . . stay tuned.
