Tonight starts my turnathon weekend. The wife and kids are leaving for chicago with the sister in law so it will be 3 and a half days of what I want!! I have 4 pens ready to turn to kick it off. Hopefully I can get a few pieces done this weekend I have been wanting to do. Pics to follow :D

Corey you're cracking me up!! I know EXACTLY where you're at,,,with
kids homework, football, soccer, scouts etc....by the time it all gets done,
it's late and you're too tired to crank up the shop and start a project. The
shop's just sitting there calling your name. I love when a hole in the schedule opens up and you can score a couple days of uninterrupted shop time. Have a blast !!!!!

Corey, really, your first night, get out your old albums, put on some Stones, Steppenwolf, Moody Blues, or even Peter Paul and Mary ! A time to reset your mind and ask " what happened !" :) Have a glass or two of wine, a good nights sleep, and start turning with a whole new perspective in the morning. It works for me :)

Ohhh... man the games have begun!! I got 4 pens turned and the finish is curing for a final sanding tomorrow first thing. Photos tomorrow sometime. Got lot's planned.... couple boxes, shop mallet, first goblets, tooth pick holders and who knows what! I am really ready to rock and roll tomorrow! Photos will run a day behind... film at 11:00 :D

Now, I think I will have a couple Sam Adams and do as Scott suggested only I think I will pull out my old Clapton stuff! Later guys!

Clapton rocks, especially the more recent unplugged, and the sound track from the Albert Hall Cream reunion of last year (rent the DVD if you havn't seen it, the extras are worth it too!).
Ahem, well, now back to our regularly scheduled program, turning.
You lucky dog! Have a good time, but pace yourself!:D
