The onion project is moving right along. We have had some bumps in the road, however. First finding the right glass. Floyd and Ron finally took off for points west. They ran off to Tacoma to our regular glass supplier at Big M glass. He is a wholesaler and had been trying to help long distance, but it was clear the fellas needed to look at glass themselves. Nancy stayed home. The reason is one of the road bumps.

Floyd did a raft of substitute teaching and got those "school kid" cooties. He spent most of May battling the cold and then an inner ear condition that screwed up his balance. This malady is one Nancy has had since her early 20s. Floyd has always been a terrific "nurse" when Nancy was sick with the balance problem, but now he really gets it! Nancy held down the fort as best possible, but got the cold and is still laid up with the inner ear stuff. Thank goodness for wireless and the internet.

This has slowed work on the onion, but Ron is forging on. Floyd has build the onion its own little wagon so we can move it around (pictures in a day or two) and Ron has worked on the top and is beginning the mosaic process (ditto on the pictures). We have a deadline looming and Nancy is excessively crabby, due to an inability to help.
