There is no explanation as to why my kiln wouldn't get to temp. The electronic controller was reset twice and all the elements burned brightly. Finally I got Herr R. (Computer Scientist /Software Engineer Extraordinaire) to come out and stare at it. That apparently worked ;-) Charlene Doiron Reinharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645689953689581574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101338649526821749.post-36515210971914720472013-10-24T18:40:39.955-07:002013-10-24T18:40:39.955-07:00In the Chronicle pic, it looks as though Wish Coll...In the Chronicle pic, it looks as though Wish Collector is beckoning to the reader. Very cool.<br /><br />Fire eater just might become part of a bigger, "integrated" artwork one day, you never know. She's biding her time :)<br /><br />The dogwood has a pretty flower pod, I didn't know that.<br />Redwoods are such magnificent trees. I'd love to see these giant sentinels in person.<br />Love the leaf litter rakings, Charlene - almost like a labyrinth to meditate upon.<br /><br />You can blame old trickster Mercury for the computer/transportation/kiln troubles - he's in retrograde again.<br />Hang in there for the next couple of weeks :)Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023748614942747415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101338649526821749.post-60968156620458582722013-10-24T11:45:51.668-07:002013-10-24T11:45:51.668-07:00Thank you for your comment, Uwe.

Congrats. I can't imagine the chaos BART not running must cause in the bay area. YIKES - but it looks like you were able to escape - and find paradise. That dogwood bloom is still gorgeous in old age.

'Wish Collector' is one of my favorites so I'm not surprised she made it into the press. Love your photos of fall in the redwoods - look at that dogwood blossom - still beautiful in old age . . . <br />I can't imagine the chaos surrounding BART not running.
