Fun Under the Sun

This was a good weekend.  Full of sun, mushroom hunting, and arts festivities. 

On Friday, I found one morel by the creek within walking distance of our house.  It was so exciting.  I had looked for them a couple of times before but hadn’t had any luck.  I tried again at a different spot on Saturday, but didn’t find any that day.  It was such a nice day that I laid out a blanket and took a nap under the sun.  It was perfect.

On Sunday, I participated in Art at the Park, a local event where local artist show off and sold their art.  I didn’t have any art at the park, but I helped out at the information booth for a couple of hours.  I was so inspired by all of the amazing work.  I create art in a couple of different medias, but nothing that I would consider good art.  I started throwing ceramics over the winter.  It was the coolest experience.  I plan to go back to it this summer.  

One project that I want to try is painting used wine bottles.  Some of the bottles I saw were really cool.  They used the bottles for different things, but I think it could make a really cool vase. 

It does seem that our tomato plants may have been put out too early.  Some of them are dying.  I know last night it got really cold.  We didn’t want to put them out so early, but they weren’t doing too well inside the house either.  Next time I know not to buy them too early.  Our sweet peas are coming up and the carrots I think are coming up as well.  How long does it take between the time the carrot seed is planted to the time we see some of the green surface?  I hope everyone else had a great weekend as well.
