Rock N' roll party time

Enjoying a lazy morning after some late afternoon partying at my friend Jim's "man cave" with his old rock n' roll band members. We munched on pizza, chicken wings and other assorted munchies along with beer and the margaritas I brought, and listened to some fine music.

After breakfast I'm going to try to get a bit of planting done, and at the same time, give kitty Bonnie Lass an outing. I just hope she stays close by, because the garden is looking more like a jungle this time of year and it will be a chore finding her if she decides to wander. Then I'll take a break, read the Sunday papers and maybe get a bit of time in the studio before we visit with Jim's sister, her daughter and son-in-law later in the afternoon.

Cone packs

Yesterday I sprayed a couple of the last small pots and then got a lot of cone packs made. As you can see, I usually make enough for more than one firing. After dinner I made a cookie sheet full of wads while watching a movie. I use a high alumina wadding mix and reuse the wads for a couple of firings.
According to the Farmers Almanac, today is a day to plant above ground plants and transplant . We had a pretty good rain overnight, so I'm hoping it will be clear enough after breakfast so I can get out and start planting bush and pole beans and transplant the rest of the veggies and maybe some flowers.
We're looking forward to the French Open Tennis which starts around noon. I'll be watching in the studio while I glue wads to the pots.
Later we're going to Shane Mickeys for his Memorial day weekend barbecue. He's cooking so I'm just bringing a 6 pack, some chips and pickles and a frozen margarita to keep him cool while he slaves over a hot barbecue. :-)

Till later,
June
