Well the opening was really fantastic. I got to see lots of pots and friends
i havent seen for a while.There were 45 potters in the show and we were to
bring 2 pots for the show and one pot from our collection.I brought a Charles
Counts bottle i bought from him in the summer of 68 when i took his workshop.
About 5 other people brought Charles Counts pots also. So He had a nice showing.
Its pretty cool to think how many other potters brought a CC pot.

The sale started Saturday at 10 Am . There was a long line of people. It
was super. There was a long line of people in the check out line all morning.
David Morgan sold out. I bought 3 pieces a Michael Simon Fish plate a Andy
Nasisse plate and a Glenn Dair covered jar..

There where also books for sale and Rebecca Wood put together the Guidebook
to Georgia Potters. It has a map and it shows where all the 45 potters in the
show live. The Guide book is for sale for $8.00.

" Perspective: Georgia Potters and Collectors 2003",, I am really proud to be
part of this show.

Im now making pots and firing kilns for my One man show at Mudfire in Oct. I
hope you will all come for that
