Happy New Year

Well 2009 is here and we are ready for a good one. Mark, Dwight, John, Bill, Robert and I did the annual raku firing for the new year. We make totems that represent what we want in the new year and do the glazing and firing on New Years Eve. The pieces came out great this year. Mark and I got back yesterday from three days of riding(snowboard, me) and skiing(telemark, Mark). My body has been praising me for getting it in shape with a strong dose of soreness! The powder snow was great in Breckenridge on Saturday. By Monday the snow was packed and crusty with strong winds so we stopped in the early afternoon.
Our new kitchen is beautiful. There are still a few things to be completed. This has not stopped our being able to use it. The design was done by our contractor Tarl's mother Mary. She did a great job working with us to create a kitchen that really works well. We are looking forward to starting our dinner parties again.
