Taco Bar Lighting Yogi Bear

Last night was my second night alone in the great city of Lawrence. While Logan is lifting heavy boxes full of corn ephemera and telephone cords, I took the liberty to do a little promotion for my classes--- I need students to enroll!!--- hang out with Akiko (the LAC's ceramics/sculpture Artist in Residence www.akikojackson.com), a really cool caterpillar, and of course Yogi Bear!! A few of my peeps from the LAC and I went to a going away party for Sara Gross (the former ceramics/sculpture Artist in Residence www.sarahgrossceramics.com) held by a LAC board member. His house is about 100 yards outside of West Lawrence--in the beautiful Kansas hillside---what a backyard view!! My breath was taken away by the awesome midwest sunset on one side of the evening sky, and a phenomenal lightning storm in the opposite direction. I was able to take a few great photos. oooooh and I have to mention that there was a Taco Bar and FreeState brew. HellsYeah!!
