Hopefully tomorrow the weather will allow me to fire up the raku kiln. With Gustav and Hanna around the weather is a little unpredictable. Let's hope New Orleans doesn't get hit again. Such a great city. They have been through enough! See ya.

Time For More Clay
For the past few years I have tried several different brands of clay. About a year ago, while in St. Petersburg, I stopped by St. Pete Clay. Highwater Clays has a store there. I bought about a 100 pounds to test out. I loved it. I have thrown with nothing since. This morning I drove to Atlantic Pottery Supply in Jacksonville to get some more clay (they are a Highwater distributor). I decided to try some Ellen Buff. I've heard good things about it...we'll see. Right now I'm using four different Highwater Clays - P5 Porcelain, Speckled Brownstone, Little Loafers, and Raku. It's rare that I throw with the porcelain and I don't keep much in the studio.
