I am going on a little adventure in a bit. I found some cool cowboy boots to use for display of some of my jewelry. I have been making Boot Belts, they are like a bracelet for your boot. Kind of hard to envision. But I think your boot should have jewelry as well.
Will come back and work on more small pieces. I am going to run up to Mancos tomorrow and leave for firing.
Ah, I hear the wind, its beginning to howl, but I am in a better place today. My tools are working, and I am looking forward to going out.
I don't like going out still. Once I am out, I am ok, Its the thought and preparation of getting ready. I have never been a lazy person. I think its still the unknown, what is going to happen to me out there? There it is, the fear, and then I get anxious, and all before I walk out the door. Really sounds unreasonable when I see it in print. But that's how it is in my world.
I think I won't post this until I get back from adventure. I like calling them that, for me its a word of possibly a positive thing.
So, until later. :) I shall go forth and adventure.
I think this may be a teaser, because I want to do a blog for this little bit of heaven in Delores, CO.
I found her on line she was selling small items, and she posted a pair of cowboy boots, for 3.00 just my kind of price. Today I drove over and what a surprise I got. One, its an historical Bed and Breakfast. Beautiful inside, rustic on the outside. Beautiful woman, her heart shows her beauty. Anyway, someone had taken the boots, but I was ok with that. It happens. But what history and exchanging of stories, was priceless. I will post some pics. I have volunteered to assist her, in marketing and social media things. She is a maverick, a typical woman. No offense guys, but woman fight for what is normal for a man to get. And she is a fighter. She has been in battle with the town Fathers who want to not only shut her down, but clear the property for "new development". An wonderful piece of history put on the National Registry of old buildings. Why would someone do that you ask? Cause she is competition, shes is a maverick in a good way, she cannot be bought or run out of town. As the days go by, I will be working on her blog and keeping on with mine.
This may prove to be more of a challenge than I am up to. But, as with all things, if you don't try, you cannot fail. Right.
I guess I feel I have a purpose, not just to help her, but helping her helps me. I hope you understand that we must take these risks, but at baby steps, always remember, baby steps. So today to say, its been a great day, is true. We relish in the good, when we get those days and build memories, to store in our tool box to help get us thru the bad. And I am not fool enough to think this is a cure all to end all. But its an OPPORTUNITY, one that I cannot pass by. All because of a pair of 3.00 cowboy boots. One day I will tell you the story of the leather toilet seat that lead to one of the biggest opportunities in my life.
What a beautiful place. I am in love. :)
Can you believe that the Delores city fathers wants this to go away, to be torn done?
