So Nice
I had a really productive week believe it or not! I was able to drive down to Oregon with my project group to look at the logs we will soon be retrieving, milling, and turning into a wood drying shed. We met with the man who was donating them to us, and he gave us some really good advice about the milling process. We also lined up a miller, a truck, and a trailer, and this Wednesday we are going to go pick up the logs.
I also got a lot done on my Procession of the Species costume—a 20’ long shark to be worn like a Chinese dragon by my roommates and me. I did a lot of the work paper maché-ing and shaping the fins and the body over the weekend and I had a blast working the studio with my friends.
I also spent some time enjoying the incredible weather we have been having. Right now it is in the high 70’s, and I am actually typing this in my back yard as a soak up some sun. Yesterday, I went down to the Olympia Farmer’s Market and rode my bike all around Olympia. It is a truly great city, with plenty going on, and now that the weather is good, it is like a slice of cherry pie with whipped cream and a tall glass of ice-cold milk—so nice.
