The Flying Lamb

We went down to Berea yesterday. It is a small college town with a large art community. If you recall, last summer we went to the Berea Art and Craft Festival. It was fun seeing all the art shops and local exhibits.

We saw these hand sculptures all over town. They were all decorated differently. They reminded us of the Hattiesburg Swans. I went in the tourist center and asked “what’s the story on the hands”. The curator had a well rehearsed answer. Obviously being asked the same question many times. The story is similar to the swans. There aren’t as many hands as there are swans but Berea is nowhere near the size of Hattiesburg.

The real reason we went to Berea.

  This is a big metal toothy sculpture thing hanging on the wall in the alley next to the fudge factory.

Artists are so creative. We liked the purple steps.

Lisa and I saw the Glass Studio down the road and went to see.

The glass was beautiful. Michelle Weston is the artist but they were having electrical issues so she wasn’t working. There is a big glass window to the left in this picture. You can view the artist at work.

Dad was taking a lot of pictures of Ivy in hopes of getting one of her in mid-air.

Most of the pictures of Ivy had her in mid-air.

The robin eggs hatched.

I cooked lamb chops on the grill. Don’t tell Ivy.

I got two of the lateral braces on the carport.
