Pottery a Community Feel

IMG_5342

Spending time with my mom at pottery is a great stress release. Pottery fulfills a creative need for me; I get  to make beautiful works of art. When I work with the clay it takes focus and all my outside stress just melt away for at least as long as I am there. The pottery has a community feel. We get to chat together and create together. The pottery is a place where everyone is  in a relaxed non judgmental environment. One of the girls that is in our pottery community started taking pottery following a divorce that had emotionally tore her up. She said it was the best therapy she could have. I find it is that as well. Everyone should find an outlet that speaks peace and calm to your soul and makes you feel good about you. You can see more about this fabulous pottery at http://potterywest.com/a/

Traveling to a “Snowbird” Location

When picking a place to travel to or a “Snowbird” location you have to be ready for it not to meet all your expectations. We have a get-away house in Las Vegas. We went there to get out of the cold; -15 degrees where we are from. I love snow but not for 5 months. I start to feel trapped. Thus a get-away place. Las Vegas is supposed to be warm but there was ice on our pool at noon today. I love Las Vegas but I didn’t expect it to be so cold. I might be looking for someplace warmer yet.
