CFM chuck123wapati Posted June 18 Author CFM Report Posted June 18 (edited) This doesn't look like much, but if you ever decide to walk the Continental Divide Trail, then you will come to this spot. From here, there is over 100 miles, as the crow flies you won't see another tree except in the only town along this portion of the route through Wyoming. I never could understand how someone could live in a city, this is 30 minutes from my house and I can spend the whole day without seeing another person, and I can usually see a long way lol. Man, the smell of the springtime flowers was glorious as well as the vastness of the world.

CFM Frodo Posted June 18 CFM Report Posted June 18 I used to drop my wife off in a parking lot where a snowmobile would pick her up and take her to her job on last dollar rd outside of Ridgeway Co on the Divide.

Members Handstitched Posted June 22 Members Report Posted June 22 You know chuck , there is light at this seemingly endless tunnel . Dad had his op and now it's just a long road to recovery and I hope there's light at the end of yours . The whole month of June for me and dad is non stop med appts . For dad it's frequent dressing changes at our local hospital as well as other appts. I've had to bite my tongue a few times ,it does get quite 'testing' at times. Stress is not my friend. I am hoping that the month of July will see things calm down and I can have some sort of * cough* life . The long list of "round to it " jobs is getting even longer . I have finally figured out how to log on using a hand held device , I'm a complete dunce when it comes to technology . May the light shine bright 🌞 HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called? Incontinentia.......Incontinentia Buttocks '

My daughter was released yesterday and is home. I do her dressing change twice a day. The operation went as well as can be and she is recovering excellently. My work has also been put off, and now i'm going to be working on her house as well. I am glad you have something again to stay in touch, if ya need help find a kid somewhere they can run these things blindfolded lol. Cold beer on the porch time!!!! Life is good🙃even when it's upside down lol.

Members Handstitched Posted Wednesday at 11:23 AM Members Report Posted Wednesday at 11:23 AM So good to hear chuck In between everything thats going on i'm still able to keep my "sanity" in tact by going into my workshop making stock etc. Only spending 3 -4 hrs each day . That's been my respite lately ,even got in the occasional roast , take care to you and yours, HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called?

CFM chuck123wapati Posted yesterday at 11:40 AM Author CFM Report Posted yesterday at 11:40 AM My sanity has always been questionable lol. So i watch my share of your tube videos and ran accross a guy who makes wild clay pottery. So now I have to learn to make some pottery. I found about four different types of clay so far and am testing them all out. Man, i have dirt and mud everywhere lol. But i think i found decent clay and have made some test pots. dont quite know how i can use clay and leather together, but I'm thinking. Next week, maybe do some rock hunting too. Lots of Jade, agate, fossils, and even opals close by.

Members Handstitched Posted 8 hours ago Members Report Posted 8 hours ago My late Mother made and taught pottery for many years.Her work is everywhere around the house .The oldest piece was made in 1977, she named and dated most of her work. Apart from gas fired kilns,she also used a technique called 'raku' , a wood fired kiln . A lot of her tools, glazes etc.are still in one of our sheds, as well as her wheel. Have fun chuck, 👍 😁 Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called? Incontinentia.......Incontinentia Buttocks '

I have an old electric kiln I scrounged but have never used. I plan to use wood for now to make low-temperature fired earthenware/raku. If I like it or the kids like it, I will be making a wheel also lol. i gotta do something, I've been in a funk and have had no motivation to do much of anything. i haven't even picked up my sketchbook or camera for months, it seems. Oh well, now i can look for clays while fishing as well as rock hunting, foraging for food, and metal detecting, at least i won't get bored lol. Have a great day and say hi to Pops for me!!
