RECAP..I still love Staunton..

  For those of you who have just joined us, I will now do a recap of this blog to date.  I've been a sculptor for 15 years , I lived and worked on a mountaintop in Bedford County.  For the last 5 years ( leaving out the last year) I was a caregiver for my mother who had had a stroke. When that ended I chose to move to Staunton and begin my work again but in the "city". I bought a pre-pre civil home and am slowly improving it. This blog is among other things an example of how this artist works or DOESN'T WORK ! when other things ( like a kitchen renovation ) are going on). Basically , I yammer on about my clay sculptures of Dinosaurs , reptiles, amphibians and last night A BEAR! and also about my garden and my photogenic pets, Bhindi, Sasha and Spike. Coincidentally, this is Sasha complaining about something. Although I have to say , judging by how much time she spends on the counters , she heartily approves of the kitchen reno.  But she still complains about it.  I also like to talk about Staunton , Virginia and how much I love living here. Because I do love it here. The people are friendly and you can walk to downtown and there is a downtown to walk to, and people are interested in the enviroment and food. All in all , I have no regrets about up and moving to a small town where I literally knew no one. I recommend it highly, but only if you're moving here.
