Day One VIU

Day One at VIU.

Registration finished,locker assigned,supplies on site.
1st great grandchild promised in exchange for parking permit.
Locker  and padlock number firmly in short term memory.





Wedged and weighed out some (very approximately 3 pounds) clay: half with grog, half without.
Using canvas covered boards to  prevent the brutally intense  Navahoe Wagon clay from colouring everything.



 Pre and post scrubbed squeezy machine to make samples for testing fired appearances...plain and glazed. Muscles and knowledge of leverage required.


Between the outside stairs and the indoor equipment, going to the gym just slipped a notch on my list:)




Thanks to Megan for heads up on cutting pieces with pin tool.
Three years is a big gap! Happy to see Scott, Pam, and Jane:)

                                    New names to remember: Candice,Megan,Jem. Glad to see Ben continue to enjoy painting.


Now the little test pieces are resting under cover in the drying room.
