Today was the opening for the art exhibit and my 8' x 5' mural on the history of 20th century science was there. I had students attend, both parents, Dan of course, and even friends and colleagues and THE DEAN of my College! It was really cool to get to do this.

Today, Wednesday, I made my rounds out in the schools-- it was exhausting, and then I went to IAMBK for the first evening of the quarter, and the head pain just grew. I ended up in bed with a migraine for the next two days. I overdid it.

I managed to get to the studio this morning to glaze some things.

And make some things.

And make a round bottom for my hanging planter.

Today was Labor Day and so Dan and I went on an adventure. We went to Montgomery and saw the capital building, and the streets were empty because of the holiday in the state capital.

Oh, this is the Weight Watchers dessert I made for dinner. Jumping ahead.

This tree on the grounds of the Capital building grew from a seed that went to the Moon and back.

We went to the memorial to victims of lynching in the United States. It was very sad and moving.
