Chance encounters, brief moments in time...

It is amazing how chance encounters and very brief moments in time can have such effects. Today I had a visit from a friend who is now an art therapist and puppeteer and we recalled a bit of our past. She visited in the pottery studio at Memphis State University where I was taking a pottery class and told me about Eureka Springs. She was there but a few moments, but friends of mine and I travelled to Eureka Springs that weekend and but for a few trips out I've been here ever since. 

JoAnn Kaminsky and her husband Hank were very close friends of mine in the early days, and little did I know when JoAnn and I first met, that there would be such effects. I was also on the state panel that named Hank an Arkansas Living Treasure.

It is thus: Our lives turn on dimes, and we'd best be flexible, that we're ready to bend when good things come. The work shown is by Hank Kaminsky. The large cast bronze globe shares the word peace in many languages. And peace be to you.

Make, fix and create...
