LOML and I have been spending a few days in Asheville,NC, overdosing on galleries and looking at all the wonderful stuff produced by the artisans that live in the surrounding area.
Spent part of yesterday afternoon on the Skyline Drive and visited the craft center there.
Saw the tail end of a turning demo by John Jordan

Boy, talk about inspiration!
Too bad I didn't know about the meeting, apparently he was the featured turner at a monthly meeting of the Carolina Mountain Woodturners.
I certainly have see lots of inspiring examples of what can come off of a lathe, now I have to get me one!
Seriously, if your travels ever bring you close to this area of the country, plan on slowing down and see all the great stuff.
