Up and running, for real.

I fired the kiln on Monday for the second time. The first firing came out a little light on the soda and I was pretty bummed. I have shows looming and a shop that's been waiting for pots and it feels like forever that I've been without a kiln.

So I was more than a little anxious to see how this load turned out. But yesterday I unloaded the pots and I'm super happy with the results. Yay!! What a huge relief. Now I can get back to work making more pots!

This is our cat Lucky.

Here are the latest pictures from around the house; the newly done screen porch and a bunch of animal photos. Even the cows look hot...
