never-ending story
the recurring conversation of the festival .....
random festival goer: "what ARE you doing?"
me: "I'm binding a very very VERY loooooooong book"
rfg: "so how long does it take?"
me: "well I started making this in June, I manage to bind about this much in one hour" (pointing to about a 10cm segment of the long book)
rfg: "oh goodness... don't your fingers/arms/ back/ neck (insert other random body part here) hurt?"
me: (slightly pained expression) "oh no I can do this for hours....."
rfg: "what's it going to be when you are finished?"
me: "well strangely enough it's going to be a very very VERY looooong book"
rfg: (offering a perplexed yet sympathetic look) "but WHY?"
me: "ahhh you've asked the vital question"

the gathering storm
clouds are building overhead
oooo the tension! the suspense!
will it or won't it
(rain that is)
so far it's been absolutely glorious
let's see if we can get to the festival end before any rainy weather sets in....

(not so) happy!
happy dog
happy was the inspiration for
the 'snow white and the seven festival dwarfs'
photo portrait series
he's not so happy here
as he has been relegated to car sitting duty
sad happy dog
