Raising the roof

If you are wondering why we are pooped? Well along with making pots, testing glazes, and all the other stuff that goes along with running a pottery we had to have a new roof put on our studio. Ouch! That was a Christmas present that I wasn't counting on and it cost more than the Peter Pugger I was lusting after. We built a hobo fire in the 45 gallon barrel and burned all the cedar shakes. It took 4 days and now we have a half full barrel of nails. When I put the shakes on 10 years ago I thought they'd last a lot longer. Where did 10 years go and why is Santa making us pay for this gift? We're having a studio open house this weekend. Hey, I ship if anyone needs a Christmas gift. They are range fed and 100% organic and don't talk back.
