Much Aloha to Sara who helped me set up this awesome display.
The pumpkin on the left...SOLD!
Beautiful fern leaf, all one piece, made by one of Rahman's friends. The glass flowers were made by Rahman.
Total sold yesterday: 4 shells, a glass body sculpture, the pumpkin and a doll's head drinking cup.
A GOOD day, for sure!
Rahman, your art makes people SMILE!
The San Juan Flying Hospital helicopter paid a visit to the health center across the street from the market, a joy to the kids because they were allowed to go inside and sit in the pilot's seats.
Coming in for a landing...
Down! And, uh, thanks for all the flying debris!
Seriously though, these guys rock. Residents pay $75/year and it covers your transportation to/from mainland hospitals. I'll check with Jerry in regards to the accuracy of this, and update later.
After processing the sales at the studio:
"Crikey," Sara's Australian heeler puppy and one of the studio's mascots.
...Paul and I went to work on the boat, finishing the installation of the solid-fuel fireplace and testing out the Ubiquitis Internet Wi-fi enhancer.
The "enhancer" strung-up under the spreader, with the ethernet cable attached.
...then into the POE (power over ethernet) and then into Paul's Macbook...
"WE HAVE SIGNAL!"
While I was fussing with this, Paul was completing the fireplace install.
Paul caulking the fireplace "chimney" into place, and...
TAA-DAA!
Chimney!
We attached the fireplace to the bulkhead, and gave it a "test light..."
Putting in a little bit of kindling...
"REAL wood-burning fireplace...just you watch."
And, FIRE!
This fireplace worked so good, it put me to sleep!
Later that evening, we all went to an "End of Summer" party just up the street from the ManCave. This potluck party was hosted by Shawnee, who works at The Galley.
The obligatory keg.
The band setting up on the lanai.
Henry, the son of one of the bandmembers, all ready to perform with 2-stringed ukulele in hand!
The band, and they were good, playing folksy-country boot stomping music.
Jerry enjoying the festivities.
The kids (and adults too) enjoying the bonfire as the evening really cooled off.
And, yes I was freezing my butt off and resorted to using Jerry's leather jacket, aka straitjacket.
A view of Shawnee's garden lighting.
A great party for all, a great mix of people and we sure had a good time! Thank you Shawnee!
