Visit and seeing art of an old friend

Eckerd College buddies from the 1990s

A weekend with my youngest son, before he moves on to new places, new friends, new activities, and did I mention, much further away?  Well, he could be going further I guess, but Colorado seems pretty far from North Carolina, to me at least!

Yes, we did the tourist thing at the Grovepark Inn.

 We enjoyed the art gallery/shop...where I saw another old friend, Brad Stroman's work

I met Brad when he joined the community clay studio here in Black Mountain for a while, but he's since moved to Santa Fe NM.  I'm glad we're still Facebook friends, so I can frequently see his latest work.

I didn't take photos of all the pottery, of which there is an abundance, and it was beautiful.  Guess I was more interested in just having an eye feast.
