Anvil in use.
OK, I got an anvil for Christmas from Sarah & Mike. I misheard Mike as saying it was 178 lbs. it's really 128 lbs. I was feeling very strong carrying it around. It's a very good anvil. Now to build a forge.

How I used to deliver my sculptures
I used to deliver my sculptures with my '78 Datsun. What a powerhouse. If it was summertime I had to run the heater full blast to keep the engine cool. Here, I'm picking up "Dreamer" from Renaissance Bronze foundry in Pueblo Colorado. This is the early '90s.

I've had this work set up in the studio for days now and didn't realize until just now that I may be endangering the entire space/time continuum. I'll be sure to not let them see each other on the 21st.
