(Mountain) Lions, Rattlesnakes and Poison Oak, Oh My!

The sign greeting us at the entrance to the Tucker Wildlife Sanctuary was a little disconcerting:


But the setting was absolutely stunning, and there wasn't a threatening creature to be found. I spent the weekend surrounded by mountains, cactus and birds, and got to admire the skills of many local artisans. And I couldn't have asked for a better backdrop for my work:





I even met a fascinating Native American man who invited me to his llama farm, to teach me how to spin the llama wool. Looking forward to that!

If ever you get a chance to visit Modjeska Canyon, don't pass it up. Even with the wildlife warnings : )
