this is shot of the IXL Brick Plant near Medalta that shut down after floods this spring.  These bricks that were ready for the kiln were turned back to mud there was such high water.  Crazy!  The only good thing of the place shutting down was the company donated the land to the residency program, and the space will eventually become where the artists can lodge.

Dad and Elsa missed each other in July!
