Not a momentous week, but like most of our weeks, filled with the lovely variety of things that make our lives…here’s what I’ve been up to: Check this out people…every Tuesday in May conservationist Tom Fuller will be working on the Hallie Ford Museum of Art’s native basket collection in the lobby so you can […]

New Carwash
Oh this is weird…instead of you moving through the carwash, the carwash moves around you…and is RED!
Carwash Fun…
The other day Kate told me that if I paid for the most EXPENSIVE wash I could get some colored soap…so we checked it out. It started like the usual car wash… with my favorite elements… and THEN…woohoo… Dorothy (our GPS) was speechless… then the rinse… and we were shoved out the back…FUN!!!! So VISUALLY […]
The Usual Pursuits…
Heading out to my studio used to just be a part of most days, but a couple of months ago I was side-lined for a bit by some foot surgery. Yesterday I made the first trip back to the studio since November…down my nice ramp…and up the steps… into my sweet little studio, amazing myself […]
…And So it Begins…
We’re only five days in, but so far I’d say 2013 is behaving like every other year I can remember…routine, sublime, annoying, lovely, impatient, content, creative and MILDLY destructive (it’s the wheelchair, not me…scraping the woodwork, tsk…). So the sun set on our beach idyll… and we came back to the gloomy fog of the […]
Summer winding down…
We’re in denial about summer…we’re trying to do all the summer things still, and the sun IS shining… Today, after the car wash…(car wash fans…I think this series is amazing with the iPhone and here are three) we biked/walked at Minto and then headed to the MIG cart for lunch… only a couple weeks left […]
…from the road…
This cracked me up…
HOT
After sort of smugly watching the national weather chart all summer and seeing one cool band in the whole country, here in the northwest, we have now got our comeuppance. It’s so hot we’re sort of hallucinating…seeing “eyes” on logs and stuff: It was so hot today we got an iced coffee and headed for […]
Meanwhile…back in Salem…
The summer begins…and happily the Minto Island Growers (MIG) farm cart is back in business! we stopped for lunch and were just behind this guy who was having the delicious asparagus soup and a fresh Oregon strawberry milkshake… Pretty soon they are getting a wood-fired pizza oven out here!!! Yippeee! Open for lunch Tuesday through […]
Visitation from Corvallis….
The day started without a flourish…just me noticing the apple tree petals on Gloria’s garage roof… and then off to the CAR WASH (my favorite)… just in time before three artist friends arrived from Corvallis for a studio visit and some lunch…here’s Ella (mosaics), Cynthia (clay) and Claudia (painting) at The Wild Pear… where we […]
