First Kiln of the New Year, January 30th

We (Gina and I) are loading the first kiln of the new year and it's only 16 degrees outside right now.  We have the first third of the kiln loaded with 40 pieces including a few orders (cups, plates, gravy boats with thrown handles).  As you can see from the picture below, we have many more pieces to load.  We have taken a break to warm up in the house with tea and hot cocoa.  Stay Warm!!  David and Gina
