Decisions, decisions!

There are all these pots.
And all these tubs.
And just a few shows...so which one should go where?

I've got too much to decide.  It just makes my brain burn...sizzle...overload, you know!

So I sit down at computer, look at the list of places I show my pottery.  Try to figure out what should go where.

Let's just start with one thing.  The first place I'll have something for sale.

Well, I did it! I packed one tub for the first show on Dec. 1, the Holly Jolly events on the afternoon/evening...which is such a fun time here in Black Mountain.  Some of our "student work" will remain outside the gallery in the hallway until January for sale.

Then I ran out of price tags, and went out shopping.  Soon I'll have everything tubbed up.  Packed in tubs, I mean.

Ancestor for today:

Daniel Poor Jr

1624–1689

BIRTH 1624 • Marlborough, England

DEATH 8 JUN 1689 • Andover, Essex, Mass

An early colonial immigrant from England.

My 8th great grandfather on my Ada Swasey Rogers family tree.

The following is included in the materials on Ancestry...and his daughter

Martha married Joseph Granger, and many generations of Grangers are cousins of mine!  This resource comes from The Comstalk-Thomas ancestry, and I don't know of any Comstalks in my tree!  So having an ancestor in common means we must be distant cousins.

There are more children listed of the Poors of Essex County, Ma in the early 1600s.
For now I'll leave you with this information.  There are lots more hints (little green leaves attached to people's names that mean something else is available on Ancestry about that person!)
