Demo Daze

Well I wish it would have warmed up a little more. What good is global warming if you can't throw pottery outside in October? I was overjoyed by the number of people not just viewing but getting involved and getting dirty! I love Asheville! Still after all these years the people who live here and the people who visit are some of the nice ones.

So traffic was stiff with a regular flow by the wheel. So good with so many people stopping by that we are doing it again tomorrow. A lot of kids with their eyes almost popping out of there face when I asked them if they wanted to give it a try. "really?" they would ask. "Yeah why not?" I would say "Are you afraid of getting a little dirty?
" I don't get to throw much these days. (that's "turn" for you southerners) I am so up to my neck with ornament production this time of year that its nice to just throw. No worrying about what it will look like in the end. It all was a pile of clay again.

So we may make the demo a regular thing when Highlands is in town. Just to remind Asheville. Yep. I'm here all year folks. A big thank you to the Woolworth Walk Staff and to all of you that came by.
