Amusing

A woman I do not know, found me from a highly neglected blog I started just for my art dolls.

She bought one of my trollops back in the 90’s from a gallery in Illinois that I don’t have any memory of selling to (no big surprise there). The poor doll needed fixing and I said sure, I’ll give it a shot, plus I was curious about what it might look like after all this time and comparative changes in the way I play with clay now. Big change. Check out that jaw line!

Garden of the Gods

I visited the Garden of the Gods yesterday and took some pics to share...I am SO happy to be living back in Colorado Springs... truly home sweet home for me.

Sure enough...
www.warriordash.com I finished in the top 2% of all entrants (then again, there were people dressed up as bumble bees wearing tu-tu's - and I think I even saw a couple Elvi(plural for Elvis') so that's not saying a whole lot .... But anyway..it was 3.2 miles, 14 obstacles finished off with a swan dive into the mud, and washed down with a fire hose shower and a warrior sized beer mug - definitely something to put on "ya'lls" bucket list.
