Artsy Fartsy Weekend

With our record nearly ready to press, it was album-art crunch-time. So, we packed up bags and bags of supplies and Garrett's girlfriend Kelly, and headed to Depoe bay for an all-weekend art party! (Garrett is our nephew who now lives at the coast)

Watching Garrett and Kelly fish for Rock Fish and Ling Cod in the calm surf (one bite, no harvest).

Marvelling at the bed of purple sea urchins on the shelf (revealed at low tide).

Encouraging rouge sea lions to push The Old Fat Snoring One off the dock.

Creating the perfect art for our record cover!!! (I'll post it soon!)
