Tuesday July 22 - Day TWO

Don't know what the clay people are doing, but we Paper People start the day with a lecture/demo on basic semantics and vocab.  Then it is off to the vats to begin pulling sheets of paper out with the deckels and molds, getting them onto the cooching screens, using the wet/dry vacs to pull the moisture out of the fresh sheets then letting them sun dry.  
It is "Museum Week" in town, so tonight we are attending a lecture given by a local artist ("The Imagineer") who creates objects d'artes from found wood.  We begin the night by playing "guess my name" from a selection of his projects. 
The end of the day comes, and it is another flop into bed (after killing ourselves over the spider under the porch light who is GORGING herself on the bumper crop of mosquitos caught in her net!!)
