Yes! Keep me up to date on this.

Wish there were some "visuals" to go with this,
but I'll use my imagination instead, okay?

I'm giving a workshop this weekend..
well...tomorrow,
and then hoping that the weather stays decent
so that I can go out hunting for driftwood and rocks again.
No whalebones though.

That's interesting about the bones on the beach.
I love fossilized stuff, BTW.
There is a place in Nova Scotia called "Joggins".
You can go look for fossils down the the beach at low tide.
It is FOSSIL RICH there...
And there are "stacks" of petrified trees in the cliffs.
You can't take fossils out of the cliffs,
but it's okay to take them off of the beach
and you always find some.
It's going to be designated as a World Heritage Site pretty soon I think...
Anyhow, it's one of the neatest places I've ever been.
I've gone out whale watching in the Bay of Fundy too...
Out of Digby Neck... Briar Island...
and it was something else... WONDERFUL!!
Saw a lot of whales up close.
The other amazing thing there is the basalt...
the basalt columns coming up out of the ocean
around all of the islands... "Giant's Causeway" type things.
Some of the columns are 8 or 10 feet across...
It is MIND-BLOWING.. totally awesome.
I will probably go back next summer with a friend from Holland.

Well, keep me posted on the firing progress.
