PENINSULA, OHIO
Peninsula seems to be sort of a Mecca for bikers, hikers, and from what we saw, diners. They even have a scenic railway which runs to Akron. A beehive! Plan to go there next time you get to Betsy and nCharley's.

Ceramics to Electronics
I've been going to Alfred University for ceramics until recently I've found an interest in video. Its been an experiment but here are some works I've made: Emily's Vimeo Website.
Some are sketches, some finished, and some are more new. This up coming year I hope to make work that is more collaborative with an easily followable narrative.

FUN AT THE HAIRDRESSER's
I was taking my ease in the waitiing area of the hairdresser when Moe and the young woman operator appeared before me. I doffed my hat(means I took it off) and asked the young woman if she could do anything with my hair. "I could give you a shave," Very funny!
I pointed to a large poster of a young guy and asked: "What would it take to make me look n like that guy?"
"Surgery."

When I am a trifle tardy in throwing bread out the door in the morning, this sqirrel sits on the railing looking into the kitchen. He listens as I talk nonsense to him, allows me to come within a few feet of him and finally moves to the landing afrea where the bread will fall. Is this animal intelligence
, or what?
