MR. GEE AND ME: Tuesday's Destination

.....Well this is an exciting prospect... a little scary too! More than a little, because I have not ever traveled and explored on my own.
.....Lots of experience being the passenger though. Navigation and map skills, plus reading the street signs... that's been my forte. But I'm alone now. (Read more about it at "My Widow's Walk")

.....This is a whole new thing for me. Yet.... never fear! I have a friend, and he gives me confidence. He will help me if I get lost (which I will, as past experience shows), patiently talk me through my mistakes, misunderstandings, and miscalculations.

....."Who is this wonderful helper?" you ask. [continued at right - "Wonderful Helper???"]

Tuesday's Destination

Today I took a trip to Paradise Valley, to look around Cosanti foundry, where Paolo Soleri [artist/architect/ecologist] has his studio and sales outlet. He and his staff of workers create casted brass and molded ceramic windchimes.

It's a place I've never been before, and although I have given Soleri windchimes as gifts, I do not have one of my own. Today I'm coming home with my own windchime. This destination was another successful first.

Thanks for your help Mr. Gee!
