The funnels work so well so I don't have to keep topping off the slip in the molds. Bumatays and Bob's. As molds get older they start to leak. I just plug those leaks with sticky clay. I put a paper towel under them so that the clay doesn't stick to the table and pull out. Dan and I decided to take a short trip to Reno. We arrived pulled off the freeway and stopped at a red light. A huge Jeep with bars on the front came off the freeway but used us to stop his vehicle. Cell Phone??? We turned around and got back on the freeway to go home. We didn't want to try to pry open the trunk and then not be able to close it. It started to rain and I told Dan I'm going to get in the slow lane behind the trucks. The other drivers are going way too fast. We were just past Truckee when we came to a complete stop for 2 hours. When we began to move it was only to have us make a U-Turn to go back to Truckee. The 16 car pileup was just ahead of us. One death many injuries. Dan and I were so happy we had gotten in the lane going 45 miles an hour. At Truckee the main road was closed. We had to take the slow road and then drive all the way around the bottom of Lake Tahoe to reach the highway home. It was a beautiful drive. We never go where there is snow so we were lucky it wasn't sticking. The two and a half hour drive turned into an 8 hour drive to get home. Back at home it was car wreck paperwork, estimates and pouring more tikis. Our well maintained low milage 1996 Camry was totaled by the boys insurance company. We lost our best car but again not being hurt in a car wreck counts bigtime. Now I had an empty spot in the garage for the first time. The tables in the hallway moved out of the house. I loaded all the projects onto the tables. I have a more normal home now. There should always be a cliffhanger. We drove to Goodwill to treasure hunt and returned home in a completely different kind of drive. Cheers, Wendy
