New Kid On The Block
My friend Debra started a blog and I’m so thrilled that she’s adding her unique and thoughtful voice to the blogosphere. She and her husband Steve own the brick and mortar Elements Gallery in the struggling arts community of Peninsula, Ohio. Steve’s pottery is just incredible and Debra does beautiful, ethereal, hand-built tiles.
She’s writing about the potter’s life, the creative life, at the growing site From Skilled Hands—please go welcome her to her new online home. It’ll make me happy. It’s my birthday, so you should all want to make me happy, no?
"Autumn is the eternal corrective. It is ripeness and color and a time of maturity; but it is also breadth, and depth, and distance. What man can stand with autumn on a hilltop and fail to see the span of his world and the meaning of the rolling hills that reach to the far horizon?"

Happy Birthday—I enjoy your blog, especially the gardening aspects and am happy to tell you I stole your pea-trellis-from-sticks idea..not so much as a pea-trellis but as an anti-chicken device. Local foods rule!

Kelly, thank you for your kind words on this your special day. The day when you can have ice cream for breakfast if you want to. When you realize that growing older is the gift that getting older isn’t. I guess this is the place to publicly say how I treasure our friendship, and that which we share.
Happy birthday, dear friend!

Ah - Peninsula, Ohio - I grew up miles from there! Used to go to the falls as a child.
