OK, spring and summer and a bit of fall….
The 2014 antique glass show came and went in April, sufficiently successful for our first effort. We’re now working on the 2015 show, which will be our last.

We enjoyed a trip to Tacoma, WA (lots of glass and especially Chihuly installations), and to Vancouver Island (visiting my cousin and a whale watching trip). While we were in Tacoma I attended the Complex Weavers Seminars (intense education on various weaving topics) and Tom took a couple of glass-blowing classes. We had a good time camping (Yakima, WA, and Arco, ID) for the four nights we did that–long time since we tent camped!

Tom started weekly volunteer shifts as part of the installation crew for the Chihuly exhibit at the Denver Botanical Gardens, and then as a “preparator”–one who cleans the bird droppings off the installations! He also answers a lot of questions, having gone through some docent training along the way.

I managed to get my 45 weaving samples done for the Early Weaving Books and Manuscripts study group of Complex Weavers, almost on time. They are at the top of the photos in the “Handwoven Textiles” section. This seemed a curious draft to find among the honeycomb drafts when I was looking for something interesting for my 2014 sample. I couldn’t see how it would hold together to make a solid cloth, or imagine why it was included in the honeycomb section of Donat’s 1895 book on www.handweaving.net. I kept coming back to it, and trying to figure it out, so I finally decided to just weave it and see. Another experiment–it did hold together, but would be very prone to snagging due to the long floats.

After we recovered from the trip northwest, we took a shorter trip to southern Colorado, camping (not in a tent!) with friends near Rye, visiting another friend west of Hesperus, and riding on the Cumbres & Toltec NG Railroad (steam engine, lovely scenery).

By mid August we were home again. The cats, having been vastly entertained by our cat sitter, were probably a little disappointed to have us home–we don’t play with them nearly as much. Our garden missed us–the plants finally grew, and overgrew, including the weeds. We do finally have some tomatoes and maybe some tomatillos and a few peppers and herbs. We planted rhubarb for the first time, and I’m not sure if it’s doing well or not. It’s there and green with stalks….but I’m not sure what to do with it. Tom made a new garden in the front yard (dug up 15 evergreens to do it), and it is now flourishing, with lots of flowers. We had to put in a low fence to keep the bunnies out. After they leveled the plants, it took a while for the poor things to start over, but they all did re-grow.

Now we’re working on Rocky Mountain Weavers Guild tasks and glass show tasks–much too much like work for our so-called retirement.
