October 17, 2006 - Florence, Alabama

And the painting...

Like the poem, this is called Siren's Dream. It is acrylic, ink and charcoal on paper.

Siren's Dream

I wish you were this moment
to fill the chasm in my arms
dive the dark it takes to reach me
and hold the moonlight with your breath
stir me with your rope coarse fingers
kiss incantations from my lips.

Your pirate’s chest I cannot touch it
still I feel ocean in your heart
when I close my eyes to see you
transcendent treasure all around.

Here are some things I made this summer. They are all made of sterling silver and they are called: Apple Tree (jade), Eden (turquoise), Gypsy Queen (agate), Life on Mars (jasper), Lily (carnelian), Night Vine (onyx), On the Square (agate and jade), Winter Bloom (chalcedony).

July 12, 2006 - Apalachicola, Florida

Hanging around

After a nice and quiet sail up from Tampa, we managed to make it through the ripping current in the channel leading to Apalachicola without running aground. Our good luck became clear to us when the next sailboat to navigate the tricky entrance ran aground just minutes after we had gone through. A local shrimp boat quickly came to their rescue.

I love hanging around this town. It's quiet, friendly and laid back, and the surroundings are beautiful backwaters filled with dolphins, gators, and manatees. The oysters (which seem to be this area's main source of income) are freshly caught and amazing. Jim and I especially like a place called The Wheelhouse for good and affordable seafood. All in all, this is a place where you just want to stick around - it would be so easy to fall into a routine and never leave. Too bad we have other plans...

And this is what I made

These are the fruits of my labor in Portland. One sterling silver ring with garnet and amethyst, and one sterling silver bracelet with sponge coral toggle bar.
