My sister Sarah is a super great textile artist and she wove the little belt for me, then I embroidered the vest with the same colors. Click HERE to see more of her work. She knows her way around a knot!

I went to the SI for the second time on Tuesday...the atmosphere is great and everyone is really talented--the models in particular. They have great actiony poses usually, and there's always a male and a female. My only bone (aside from the distracting live music) is not having a clear view of the models' feet--that drives me CRAAAAZZZYYYYY

heh heh heh her expression kills me...by the way the model was a gorgeous woman
and her face looked nothing like this

today is a missing Russia kind of day

Also a good day to work on this lil guy:

epoxy boots with pins in the heel and toe for tiedowns

Guitar drying...then I'll put strings!
