Hi Patricia, With this valley heat, I wish I was moving to the coast or at least a cooler climate. We've been going through a lot of our possessions in preparation of moving, we're wanting to sell our house and downsize (property wise). We're donating and giving a lot of stuff away. It's amazing the "stuff" we have collected. I still have some boxes of fabric from when I used to quilt and sew a lot and am still drawn to fabric, hopefully I'll get back to it one of these days, perhaps this winter.

Not sure if you've seen this flickr photo file on Pulleyn. Thanks for the informative post. I love learning about new (to me) artists.

Before I read your whole post, I was just about to ask why you were visiting NC - I was hypothesizing that you were thinking about moving there until I read the part about moving to Cambria Coast.

Also, after reading your synopsis on the River Sculpture, you would make a good art beat writer - very effective. "testing a sore muscle to see if it still hurts" - what a great line.

I love Rob Pulleyn's work! He was in a glaze workshop with me at Penland in 2004. He came to clay late in life (had owned Lark - a textile magazine in the beginning before Lark books) & I think he was a textile artist first. Anyway he's a very interesting guy & his work is fabulous.
Good thing you had such a great vacation before having to move! 3 generations is a lot to sort through -- good luck!
