Retreat projects

 I just couldn't resist adding another Mt.Sheep picture as this curious lady above was watching us take pictures of the herd!!  And below, two of the garden angels that we constructed and painted for our yards.  These will either be placed on re-bar in flower beds or hung on a fence.  With aluminum flashing wings, steel wool scrubber hair on wooden pieces from my old bar stools and a tart pan for a hat, they are constructed from scrap 2 X 6's.  We had a great time giving them personalities.
 Another angel sits next to two more stepping stones.  These bunnies also came out terrific!  We did discover that springform cake pans work well for unmolding.  You can see that the angel below has copper wings and the glass block was another project I will post.
Blessed to have such good friends for close to 50 years, we have always gathered periodically for this and other kinds of times together!!
