What we've been experimenting with is doing it to woodturnings. That's what I'm into. I turn the pieces, and she does the marbling.

Some people have a specific plan when they start out. I like to put a piece of wood on the lathe and have an idea of what I think I want, but design something as I go along.

Not too many people have tried marbling on wood. You turn the cover, and there is marble paper.

Some people go to Elderhostel as more like a vacation. We go because we want to learn.

Some day, we'll get up and decide we're going to do it again.

It shouldn't be too severe yet. If we see these dry levels this summer, it could be disastrous.
