My final pieces are bisqued so they were glazed and wadded. The salt kiln is still super hot from the previous ‘low’ salt firing so we’ll be loading and firing from very early tomorrow.

Leon Popik, Emily Carr UAD ceramic technician and his dad, Leon visited. Maybe he’ll take the information about Medalta’s soda and salt kilns back to Vancouver. He says EC is building a whole new campus off Granville Island.

Another visitor was Brendan Tang from Kamloops with his girlfriend Geeta. Brendan will be a Resident for July with 7 others.

I used the photo booth at the Medalta office for a while. But it’s an early night as tomorrow will be LONG and stressful!

This is what is ready for the salt firing. Of course I hope we’ll fit it all in. Joanne, Leigh and Claude will be helping me either with the loading or the firing.

Al leaves Port Moody for the 2-day drive to Medicine Hat tomorrow morning.
