I need to echo the comments of others about Tony's San Antonio workshop. =
Like the others in the class have said, his workshop was a delight to =
attend. There is no question that his techniques, tricks and bits of =
advice are wonderful but his presentation and his stories alone are =
worth the effort and the expense of the five hour trip. =20

Jim and Gay Judson did a spectacular job of hosting the event and opened =
up their wonderful house for a great Saturday night supper. Thanks to =
them.

And, thank you Tony for coming way down here and sharing your years of =
experience with the a small group of Texas potters. You are most =
welcome anytime.

I've been practicing some of what Tony preached and have some pretty =
nice pots waiting to be fired. I've learned a lot by watching Tony's =
video but nothing like I did getting to sit a few feet away from the =
wheel and being able to ask questions while the master worked.

One suggestion goes out to David Hendley---the next time you buy Tony a =
Cowboy shirt why don't you get him a pink one. He made the shirt look =
good by-the-way. A pair of cowboy boots might be in order.
