It’s that time again, changing of the relays. My big evenheat kiln started to heat a bit uneven, normally that means the relay is going bad. My big kiln takes 3 relays. A good friend of mine told me it’s best to change them all out at the same time. […]
I love to travel, we’ve gone various places in Colorado including Westcliffe, Steam Boat, Estes Park, Breckenridge, to name a few. Well this post is going to focus on Colorado Springs. So this is a pretty long post but I thought it would be best to put it in one […]
I mentioned last month that I’m working on a lot of production orders. Well with the help of Tracy I finished another order – 460 ivory glass soap dishes. It’s a lot of cutting, washing, and firing but it’s also very satisfying to get them boxed up and sent. They […]

I love glass and all the amazing things you can make with it. Last month Lela and I were visiting my friend Coral and she showed this beautiful Glass Filigree Sun-catcher (it’s made with a stained glass technique). So Lela and I signed up for it. But instead of using […]
I’m not sure if you’ve watched “The Land Before Time” series when you were young, but I loved Little Foot, Ducky, Petrie, Spike, and even Cera. Anyway when I was over at Tracy’s shop she showed me her new glass cutouts and I just couldn’t help myself I took them […]

As my followers know I’m retired Air Force and left my home town in my early twenties. I went home once around 20 years ago, albeit I haven’t been home since. *BTW this is a little glass related, I gave all of them some glass pieces and if you look […]
I’ve mentioned my good friend Tracy several times, but I have to give credit where credit is due. Tracy made a beautiful fused glass charcuterie board and I asked her to cut me a couple out with her water-jet cutter. Normally I don’t post process pictures, but since it’s just […]
As I mentioned Sky just graduated UCCS, Magna Cum Laude in English and Philosophy. We are so very proud of her! She didn’t have an actual graduation because of COVID, but we did take a few pictures with her diploma! This month Sky went off to Law School. She has […]

We went to Breckenridge again recently. We’ve been going there for over 10 years, however it’s getting so busy it’s not as fun for us as it used to be. That being said we had a good time. We went in the hot tub every night. One day we went […]
I’ve mentioned Tracy before and I asked her to cut me out some Colorado symbols. I makes it so much easier having her cut them than me with a tile saw. Anyway, here are a couple of them that I made into ornaments. One has a blue background, one has […]
