Yesterday I worked with Pat and Jane for the last time in the basement. Finished work on the map as far as we could, but we can’t fully remount it because it needs a new mat that we need to order. Pat also pulled a few Charles Hargens pieces out for me to see. She knows I like cowboys. J
When I went back upstairs, they had bought 2 boxes of cupcakes for my last day with some of them! We had a cupcake break and they were SO kind!
After 2 cupcakes, an errand, and lunch, I went back to the basement and finished the last 5 hatboxes. After that, I went back up to find Lori gone home with a bad headache. I took the liberty of putting the dress form I carved yesterday on one of the poles we let settle in concrete last night. It worked GREAT!
Cindy and Clay took me out to Whiskey Creek for dinner. I split a full rack of ribs with Clay and had the HUGEST baked potato loaded with bacon, cheese, sour cream, and pulled pork. Needless to say, I was still full when I woke up this morning for breakfast.
Today was a pretty quiet day, not a whole lot of people, even for a Friday. Lori and I got another dress mounted on our styrofoam/wood/concrete dress forms. I really like our design for the forms: they're easy to fit, easy to make, and best of all, easy to carry around the exhibit and rearrange!
I took a long lunch break and went over to the Archeodome at the Indian Village. The archaeology students from the University of Exeter in England arrived yesterday so I got a chance to watch them do some digging. I had to leave after 20 minutes though, because I was about to grab a trowel and start digging. :)
Not a whole lot of plans for the evening. Getting psyched to see my cousins Molly and Jackson and Aunt Kay tomorrow. I think I'm going to give them a personalized tour of DD, then go to my friend Jane's wedding reception (it's literally an open house party at the Moose Lodge downtown...swing dance taboot!) then we're gonna go to the drive in! Haven't seen them since New Year's and CAN'T WAIT!
So here's my shout-out to Lori Holmberg! Thanks so much for everything you've taught me over the last four weeks! It's been a crazy ride and I have LOVED every single minute of it! I'll never forget our time together...
On an even more exciting note....BRACE YOURSELF, SPEARFISH!!! I'LL SEE YOU ON SUNDAAY!!! :D
Making our dress forms :)
My last wedding dress...
