Do you have an Etsy account http://www.etsy.com/.<br /><br />I hope mouser jack has all the safely equipments: chainsaw boot, pants gloves helmet with ear protection and visor. A neck protector is also used. I had a friend who had an accident working as a feller in the bush. In spite of all his equipment in proper order and being a skilled worker he died when his virtual cut his head off when his saw kicked back.<br />He is not the only friend and neighbour who has died cutting wood over the past 30 years.Tossing Pebbles in the Streamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354065895900279070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-65523071921491055582010-11-17T18:48:44.075-06:002010-11-17T18:48:44.075-06:00Reading your blog again makes me a bit nostalgic, ...Reading your blog again makes me a bit nostalgic, Annie. I miss the writing almost as much as I miss aspects of the lifestyle and the country. The creative muse pokes me every now and then, whispering to write.

Don't know how well this is going to work for me but I'm going to try. It is very hard to find mugs with good handles because most potters don't like to pull them. It takes a lot of practice to pull a good handle. I make fine handles if I must say so myself! I think they are very comfortable to use.MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-48973476700025097222010-11-16T20:45:40.198-06:002010-11-16T20:45:40.198-06:00WOW Annie, you have been very busy and the results...WOW Annie, you have been very busy and the results look wonderful. Can't wait to see the colors when these are fired. Grenville and I are always looking for good coffee mugs with good handles - not easy to find, so I was checking yours out! The economy is bad for artists here on the VA eastern shore as well, not that it's any consolation, merely a sign of the times, which are not that great. Good luck on the chicken coop project.Beatrice P.

Now, chainsawing down a tree is great fun. Its the aftermath thats the work. Dragging off the limbs, sectioning the truck for transport to the splitting area [firewood]. Some of those sections weight a lot.<br />I won't even talk about the splitting. It makes watching the armload or two a night burning like watching a best friend consumed, knowing that more will have to be cut and split.<br />No doubt, our pioneer forebearers were strong and cut from much different cloth than these days.<br />But it's good for the soul. I think.<br /><br />Also, no new mice in the traps. <br />We may have won. [for now]<br /><br />And, you should see Annie 'throwing' pottery. Very talented. I could never lay claim to any talent. I could hate talented people. I think there will be a video posted of her at work at some point. Its hard to believe how a lump of mud, under the direction of trained hands, can become something so nice.Mouser Jacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-38998242809282708492010-11-16T10:32:16.356-06:002010-11-16T10:32:16.356-06:00I love hearing about poultry!
