I haven't posted for some time now. Life has been busy and interesting. I am currently working on a giant gourd and will post the image of it as soon as it's done. In the meantime:
My daughter, Kelsey, is going off to Adana, Turkey to teach English. I am excited and anxious about her being so far away for a year. I will be going to visit her, of course. There are gourd artists in Turkey and I am looking forward to seeing some of their work. I have seen gourd lamps online and they are beautiful. Hopefully, I will bring one home with me. I am certain I will learn some fascinating things about Turkey through Kelsey. I am also very proud that she is so adventurous and open to new cultures.
Will blog more at a later time.
