Glass Spiders
OK - So the title "Glass Spiders" has nothing to do w/what we did in Corning, but it has the word "glass" in it & is a really kooky yet cool David Bowie song & tour. I remember seeing him on this tour - at Vet's Stadium - and a big ol' glass spider hovered over the stage. And he did "Wild is the Wind" with Peter Frampton on guitar. And Squeeze opened for him. Squeeze? Yes. Squeeze.
Anyhow - I was supposed to post the pix of our 1st-day Corning art in 24 hours of about a week ago. Time moves slowly so q
uickly.
Without any further delay - check out what we made! First up are the boys' creations. Choddie's is the orange, yellow and red tear-drop globe. You will note that it maintains a position of prominence in his room on his cluttered dresser top. You can see his pack of gum atop his set of liquid-coolio pens, one of which sits just ahead of the delicate tear-globe. A trumpet lesson book leans precariously to the left of the tear-globe, as if to say, "Glass? Have ye taken the place of brass in the heart of Lord Chodsworth?" For a day, perhaps, yes, fair coronet - for a day. A day in Corning, New York.
Next we see Thompson's tear-globe. The Tugger chose purple, yellow a nd wipe as his glassy tones. His presentation area is only slightly less cluttered than that of his elder sibling. Note the mini Hess truck - still in the box, mind you (unopened? define unopened, nerd) and the gold-framed art behind the tear-globe. To the right, you can see the corner of a picture taken in Ocean City (NJ, not MD - how many times do I have to tell you that, Monica?)
