Been away . . .

I had intended to finish the above stone before our trip out west, but that did not happen. We were gone for two weeks and visited Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, then Colorado again on the way home to pick up 678 lbs. of alabaster boulders in Ft. Collins at "Colorado Alabaster Supply". The owner, Stan Jones was very helpful despite our arrival about 16 hours ahead of schedule - thanks Stan! Upon our return, I unloaded the stone and then finished the piece I'm calling "Rampart". Now I need to get going on the 14 new boulders in my studio.
