Fun to find the Folk School here -- like finding a friend's picture tucked in a cookbook. Two of us took pottery ("clay") classes there - when money for them dropped from heaven -- and loved it. Beautiful well run place, real people, hands-on classes.
Wow, thanks for the feedback. You make me want to go there even more!
