For years, decades rather, we were sailors. One summer, we ventured from our safe haven in Maryland, all the way to Block Island, Rhode Island. This was bluewater, no anchoring, all-day/all-night sailing. Huge waves crashed over our bow. I thought we were going to die.

I am fortunate to have a beautiful art studio in the Spring City Mill Studios Building in Spring City, PA, a newly renovated knitting mill factory built in 1886, with high ceilings and tons of northern light.
