Week three was such a good one! It felt like all of us finally started to figure out how to work in the space, we started talking and sharing more with each other (it is a group of introverts!). On Monday we got an unexpected and lovely visit from Gord Peteran and...

Week two started a little late for a couple of us – Janice and I didn’t get back from the DC/Maryland trip until Monday afternoon. James was busy for the week, so from Tuesday to the weekend it was mostly Janice, Chris, and me. I did a bunch of carving...

I’m writing my last post from home, having moved all my stuff out on Saturday with the assistance of my patient husband. Unfortunately, the elevator in the dorms was broken, so we carried all our stuff down four flights of stairs. The shop was a lot easier, with...
