insects

Just some cool bugs I found...all on different days.  I didn't even realize I had taken so many bug photos until I went to download my pics.

Found this HUGE spider in Alabama while Dove Hunting with my cousin, Colin

Just trying to show how big he is.

This is the same spider that has been building his web in front of my apartment all summer.  As soon as someone tears it down, he starts over again.  I don't know how many times I could start over.

It was a very detailed web!

This furry creature was at my parents house, taking the sidewalk up to the porch.  :)   I loved his fuzzy feelers.

Pottery Class

I know I need to take my real camera and photo-document Cortney and myself struggling through this class each week.  Recently, we've had creative block and haven't been able to come up with a single thing to make.  Last week I was forced to keep going on a plate that I wanted to smush up and start over into something else.  Once it was finished, it was pretty much agreed on by all that it was beyond bad.

Here's one photo of my very first pot I made on the wheel.  It's much smaller than I would have hoped for, but for the most part, it's even all around.  Maybe Jesse can drink espresso out of it.  HA!  Or I could give it to mom, because she loves everything I make...it's her duty as my mother.
