Today's Silly Question

When told that the workshop will close at the end of October, the question was "So, why can't I come at Christmas to get my presents?"
Grrr. At the moment, I may run out of stock altogether before then anyway.. Last day of the Sculpture Trail tomorrow (Sunday 8th September) Hooray!!!

I did make a nice new postcard for the Sewing Machines - this is going to be my life from November, we may as well start with a good image...

Lake City, and Lake Pepin

Lake Pepin is a sort of wider place in an exceeding wide river, the Mississippi.. After sundry sewing-machine mends, shuttle-finds, and little walks for lunch
Past this nice bit of carved stone

We had a trip out on the lake on the rear-paddle steamer Pearl Of The Lake

A couple of hours of delightful warm sunsetting-and-chatting,


with pelicans

Bald eagles

Slightly sinister silhouetted men

and lots of sailboats in the marina

To say almost nothing of gulls, mainly above us...

Products of the Morgue (following yesterday's Corpses)

Two days of dismantling produces skellingtons












Hamburger



Tables and toolboxes

And enlightenment

Also 3 boxes of engines, one of light fittings, one of switches, and a huge pile of waste plastic..

36 Corpses

Organ donors..

Is it a Mouse?

Actually not.. Fluff from a bobbin case (scissor handles for scale).. How does anything get so grubby without anyone noticing?
