Update and Pictures from our Trip

Hi everyone,

It has been months since my last update. I have been very busy with the Ohio Jewelry and metal Arts Guild. It has been growing so fast, particularly in the Columbus Region. I wish we had that kind of participation here in the North East. I can't wait until we do.

There is a lot going on both personally and some professionally. First of all, due to a family medical issue I have canceled all of my classes in July. I will reschedule them as soon as I can. I am already working on my August Schedule and will announce that as soon as it is finished.

In Most recent news, my husband, daughter and myself have just returned from a fantastic trip to Indonesia where we visited with a friend of mine. I used to work with my friend Jim while I lived in the DC area. He extended the invite to visit with his family in Indonesia and we decided to take him up on his offer. The trip was fantastic. I am including the first of many pictures in this post. There will be MANY more to follow as I get them edited for posting on the web. Right now the file sizes are HUGE!

These first pictures were taken while we were in Korea during an over night layover on our way to Indonesia. It was a long flight, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting.

We had the opportunity to visit a Buddhist Temple while there in Korea. This picture is of a tree that is over 1,300 years old. They call it "Grandpa Tree. " This picture shows my daughter with our "little flat friend, Flat Frannie."


These next two pictures show the bell that is rung twice a day by a Buddhist monk. We didn't see any monks.



This next picture shows my daughter in front of a sign that points to "E-Mart" which is the equivalent to our Wall.Mart.


This last picture shows a really cool "side walk" in front of our hotel.


I will post more pictures soon. Perhaps even today if I can get to them.

    I can't wait to see more of your pictures and to hear about what you did in Indonesia. I love the colors and pattern on the bell tower too. I see a beading pattern in it.
