Mom and Dad


So the quick visit with my parents ended yesterday morning as they headed south to sunny Florida for a month. On Sunday we headed down to Seagrove, the pottery capital of America, and went to a few pottery stores and a few potters own shops. Most of the places are closed on Sundays but there were still a fair amount of places open. My mom bought some things that she is going to be giving out as Christmas gifts. I also bought a large vase that had some minor glaze problems. It was $45.00. Regular price on it was $90.00. I bet if most people looked at it they would not know there were any issues with the vase. I saw many things in the area that are photo worthy and will head down there again fairly soon for a photo safari.
It was good to have my parents here even though it was a short visit. You take what you can get.
Not sure if they are going to stop on the way home. I suspect they will but who knows. They may be able to be here for my birthday and that would be cool.
Looks like we will be getting our last blast of winter snow today. Anywhere from a dusting to 4 inches on the high side. Seems they really are having trouble predicting this one.
