Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition

First day of the show is over. It poured rain all night, all morning and into the early afternoon. We set up the booth in the rain but luckily not in the mud. We were just feet from a pool of mud which I did lose sight of the soles of my shoes in as I tried to take a short cut to the car. Back and forth, slip and slide, it took about an hour to get set up. Not bad considering the rain. The weather man predicts a sunny day tomorrow.

Show Tomorrow

Derek is packing the car as I am writing this. It has been a very busy couple of weeks getting all of the casting done. I am really pleased with how the pieces turned out. The crows are my favourite. I really looked at the birds before I started and I hope it shows. Crows have been observed by ornithologists working through problems. Some crows have figured out that if a nut is to hard to break with their beak they will drop it on the road and wait for a car to run over the nut to get it open. They have also been observed using tools like a stick with a hook on the end to get nuts out of some place where they can't reach the nut with their beak. Well.... enough about birds. I have a very early morning and must get to bed.
