Its 10 o’clock…do you know where your puppet is? Well tonight after a very full day of working with artists, museum directors (printed up promo card for First Friday to go into the Applarians packets for Apple Blossom) and gallery board members and directors as well as the Bear Chested Potter, Terry Johnson (delivered his 500 pounds of clay and showed him his new promo cards) it was off to the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center Swing Room to work some more on the Giant Puppet Project with Bill Reitvelt. Bill and I and later another guy (didn’t get his name) worked on screwing the backpacks to the PVC pipes and attaching the 1x3 wood boards that will be the shoulders and hips of the giant puppets. All was going pretty well till we got to the part about screwing the tops of the heads to the wood caps on top of the PVC poles inside that connect the heads to the shoulders and hips. It almost went really bad a couple of times there. We were all glad the puppet police were not there. Nuff said about that. We got a bunch of stuff done on the support structures for the giant puppets. Tomorrow it will be more of the same and a lot of work on the costumes. Martha took her sewing machine down there today, so that there will be one more machine to work on the outfits. I think it is all finally coming together. We shall see.
