Hello, friends!
Sorry to be gone so long.
Here's the art. . .

Since we last spoke, Jo and I have been feverishly creating pieces for
the Halloween and Vine show. You have to watch yourself before sitting
on the couch around here. . . there are tiny body parts and heads
everywhere.
I helped our friend, Matt, sell his art this week at a guerrilla style
art show in Woodstock. That's Woodstock. . . as in the neighborhood of
Woodstock in Portland. Everyplace in Oregon is named after somewhere
else. So some local young people invited artists and bands to come art
up the street, which they blockaded off without permission from the
city. But they had asked all of the local businesses, and everyone was
cool with it. Matt's jewelry and art made from old skateboard decks
drew a lot of compliments and sales. You can check it out here. . .

So that Woodstock gathering got me excited about selling my own folk
art at local shows. I haven't made many guitars or record players out
of old junk in the last few years, but I'm going to work on them again
and sell them locally. We seem to have the right crowd here to
appreciate that sort of thing. Here's a guitar I just finished.
