May 30th
Will be the inauguration of the Turtle. It will be a race against the clock but I'm sure
it will be amazing. Zanetka Gawronski will be showing work of recent print work, Steve Arntson and Bridget Young will be performing and some manifestation of Paundy is quite possible.
We painted the ceiling with the first coat today. The sound quality is popping a bit more.
OMG.


I forgot to mention that if we are Lucky some manifestation of Anne and ________ will play too.

old school.

I haven't blogged about the goat in some time because it and I (we are metaphysically linked) are in an incubation period. I will say, it is shaping up to be an extraordinary summer. The turtle should be relatively complete by June. It looks better all the time. Please enjoy this photo of Kenya (still living ) Coco and Otis.

Challenge.

The Goat is more than that. When you show for Mike and Jamie's bon voyage, please bring your creative game . Apparently Mike has asked folks to dress as they did at thirteen. Please bring something to perform on stage, requisite instruments in tow. See you Saturday.

sweet and real.

Why we work.

Zanetka fighting for a woman's lav!

Just a few of the myriad of folks helping: The Daves,Dan, Nick, Zanetka, kato, Drew, Steve , Carl

This gives one a good sense as to the size and curve of the space.

Aww that is just plain purty.

You know what is most amazing? If you think about something for ten years as if it were a fantasy and to have your whole community make it manifest. Really I am still floating.Thank you: Scott, Dave, Dave, Doug, Dan , Nick, Zanetka, Steve, Jeff, Spencer, Alex from 20/20 and company, Bill, Cyndi, Dennis, Andy, Paul, Steve A, Anne, Manny, BQ, Maximus, Pax, Jeremy, Justine, Darren, Mer, Ron M, all the folks that stayed home and watched kids, and the folks I am definitely forgetting.

Today, I managed to fake in some of the back dome rafters today too. Rolling now! xoxoxox

OMG! Crazy LOVE>

The extraordinary community I live in came out in force!
Tons of crafts(wo)men all going to town on the turtle/outhouse/new bar entrance/bar fence/patio.
It was extraordinary. For the many folks that worked and then split I just want to reassert my thanks and welcome you back out for some entertainment soon.
All the musicians were amazing and spot on last night. The preposterous building method I chose seems to have paid off in the acoustics.
No long diatribe today, just crazy love. xoxoxoxo, t

Czesc!

Hey, any chance I could get a RSVP for Friday/Saturday? I won't get home until 6:15 on Friday. Meat and beer purchase eminent.
It should prove pretty fun-- the day, not the purchase.
Sounds like we have some all stars coming.
We won't be able to talk about this on face book.
