You may want to also post this under upcoming events and classes. that's usually where people look.
Sorry I can't help otherwise with information hun. BTW... I'm going to be kind of daft here for a moment... where exactly IS the great Pacific Northwest hun? I'm not a very good history person :o

Poppycat · Veteran Member

Well, silly, it is in the farthest northwest corner of the United States, of course. It is very beautiful with Mt. Rainier (remember the volcano that exploded about 28 years ago), multiple ski resorts, Puget Sound (kinda like an ocean, but not quite). Come and visit sometime!

Buffington · Guru

Well I was awefully daft wasn't I? It said right in your post for the title... DUHHHHH ME!
Ok, I gotcha now. My friends son lives in WA. He's in the Navy.

Ya know, I might just stop by if I'm ever out that way. My friend wants to move there to be with her granddaughters. We're stuck here in the frozen tundra of MN. lol

And I'm stuck in the bush with lovely sun showers, not too hot a day and can still sleep in winter sheets, have Sams cousin over friom Ireland, now he wants to go home sell up and come back out. He is going home on the 6th with a tan. He needs to be hog tied as he is up at 5.30am working arround the yard, it is realy good seeing Sam hasn't been able to do much for the past 4 yrs. XXXXXX June.

Boy does that sound nice to me! It was 5 degrees Ferenheit with wind that made it feel like -15 below zero Ferenheit yesterday. I stayed in all day. Gotta go out to the jewelry studio tonight brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Well is that nice if Sam's cousin wants to move to Qnsld? My relies are from Ireland but long ago.

My DH wants to know where abouts in Qnld you and Sam live June. He wants to find you on the map. We have friends in NSW in Sussex Inlet. He likes to find where people live on the big map. :)

If you do Goole Earth Search and put in 22 Arborten Rd Glenwood, Queensland.Australia. It is half way between Gympie and Maryborough. Do you know about Google Earth. We where on there this morning and could see Sam's cousins property and house drive along the road, we looked up the house Sam grew up in Nth Ireland and found that, Actually, I just came on here to update my Google Earth, so I can check out my home town of Goondiwindi, QLD. Let me know how he gets on. I dont know if it has been updated yet but last time we looked where we live the house was only half way done and there was about four shipping containers in ammongst Sams Demolition Timber and recycling. XXXXXX JUne.

Kristi, how far from Seattle is Lacy? I'm geographically impaired!

peachycheeks · Veteran Member

HI. Lacey is about hour and half drive south of Seattle. Olympia, our capitol is sister city to Lacey. Thanks!

sara zata · Guru

Looks like you two should get together and have reborning days, I drive that far just to get groceries. XXXXXX June.

I think it would be fun to know some people locally that could maybe share ideas. St. Martins Univ. in Lacey is having a big holiday craft show this weekend. I was going to see if they let people register for a booth. I would love to find out about next year if not this year- or other art/craft shows. Let me know if anyone interested??

Buffington · Guru

I'll have him give it a go June! Should be interesting ;)

I would drive that far to take lessons from Andrea!!! Really!! Her babies are awesome, as you can see by her avatar! Maybe do a once a month reborn get together you two :o

Poppycat · Veteran Member

Sorry if I'm getting stoopid, but who is Andrea?

sara zata · Guru

Andrea is Miss Reborner she lives 3 hrs from Seattle. Her post is up above. My nursery name is Sara Zata, but I sign my name correctly as June. Yours is Poppycat, but we don't know your real name. Bufffington is Pat. Hope this helps. XXXXX June

I'm Brooke. Just got my paints - taking brush and sponge in hand today!

sara zata · Guru

Hello Brooke, Glad to meet you, I'm sure you will enjoy this forum. We are a friendly bunch of reborners and if you cant find what you want to know in the tutorials then just pop in and ask the question. I live in Australia, but pop onto the forum morning and night. It is 8.30pm here at the moment it has been a lovely day, I have been out and mowed part of the back yard, as it is 1.5 acres. I have also painted a porcelain fairy waiting on her to cool down to give he more blush and eyebrows and bottom lashes. She is a present to go to Nth Ireland with my husbands cousin. I will take pics when she comes out of the kiln, there is a bit more preparing to do with them before you can start painting. Also they have top be in the kiln till it reaches 1178 degrees to do the first fire which usually I do at night. Painting temp is about 700 degrees, I have 7 more of them to do before xmas and 1 reborn. Then I have classes foir reborns in Jan and some for porcelain in Dec, so it is going to be a busy 2 months. XXXXX June.

Buffington · Guru

Well, I might just have to find some money to go to Andrea's house for a weekend. I would love to take a lesson or two from you hun (even though I teach reborning) lol

June, we have google earth'd you. We see you live on the edge of town. Lots of property hun! Try google earthing me (I'll pm you my addy). My dh says when he went to NSW in 1996 he was right on the road by your house! He went with our friends to Fraser Island, Gympie, Hervey Bay, they traveled up the Sunshine Coast. At Fraser Island they went all the way up to the tip. They stayed at a place on the river just west of you I guess. So when he google earth'd you and saw where you were he knew right away what was around you.

sara zata · Guru

My google earth has been missing on my computer since the last time I took it to get checked, I've tried down loading it and nothing will happen. In 1996 we lived in Caloundra in a beautiful white brick house, see if he can google earth it, 20 Ironbark Rd, Caloundra Queensland. It had a big shed at the back and lots of trucks and machinery. XXXXX June.

Buffington · Guru

I'll do that June. :) Maybe I'll post the link for you or pm it to you.

Poppycat · Veteran Member

Hey!! I found a neat way to find other people interested in reborning living close to you!! Just go on Ebay and search for Reborn. When you get your results you can check the place for what order you want your results to be shown, and there is an option for "Closest Geographical Distance" or something like that. Choose that and Ebay will tell you what sellers live closest to where you are. I found someone only 10 miles away! Cool.

sara zata · Guru

Hi Pat, just got Google Earth sorted will check where you live later on, see what I come up with. The one of 22 Arborten Rd, would hve been taken long before we put the house on. If we paid for it, we would be able to see everythinbg cars, people and everything, but I think they blank out the car No Plates. XXXXX June.

Buffington · Guru

Brooke, that's cool. It would be nice if you can maybe find one of those reborners that also teaches classes that isn't too far from you. Or maybe even a dealer eh?

Ok June, I'll pm you my addy. I think a lot of those google earth things are from some time ago. My house still looks blue and cream and it's been brown and cream for about 2 years. hehehe
