You have a couple that would be fun to see here when they are admiring your tiki carvings. Hint for a photo op. Hamo we have walked the grounds there many times but haven't stayed at the Tropicana. Our favorite hotel is the Carriage House. Small, easy parking and close to the strip. Every time we stay a guy in an old car drives up to us in the parking lot and tries to sell us huge diamond rings for a song. He's also a comedian so it's not scary to talk to him. I always say sorry I only were tiki necklaces. Thank you for the mug comments too. I appreciate you all so much. Wendy ====================================== I am so far behind posting. I guess it's time to post some catch up odds and ends. I wanted to share what Dan does while I'm working on tiki projects not requiring him to do heavy mold lifting or blowing off dust after I sand. He has around 100 albums and 40 CD's of garage band music. He listened and picked out his favorites. He made sure he wasn't picking the same song from the two sources. Then after perfecting lists of the titles, the artist, the source he put them all onto CD's. The binder ended up with 65 pages of these. Music is his hobby. His favorite band, the Beach Boys. ========================================================================= I cast and cleaned up two Ren Clark Severed Heads. When I bought an original from the sister of Ren Clark I asked permission to re-make these and was given the go ahead (get it? head, ha ha). That head has since been sold to my friend Trey Goodwin. These will be extras to sell when glazed. I may do something different with the glazing. ============================================================================= Back in April after making 8 Tapa mugs for Jeffery Queen I had leftover mugs so I did three more he doesn't yet know about. I finished sculpting these on 4/22/20. But I can't tell if this is all three or just two of them. ============================================================================ I had no idea that I would sell all of the crawl mugs at the first stop. It was embarrassing to turn people away. So I told people that if you have all of the first 9 I would make them the mug to complete their sets. So I have these four in progress. I have retired from making the crawl mugs after ten wonderful years. These four will bring up the number to 80. If you need one to complete your set let me know and someday in the far future I would help you out. ==================================================== Wow it feels so good to get some of the catch up done. There's still more than a month's to go. Cheers, Wendy
