Ladies Arts and Crafts as well as trickery

This was posted on another BLOG by  Greg Kerlin at 10:23 PM the ladies have been busy with arts & crafts. Under the expert tutelage of Kristy - who is an accomplished artist - the ladies have been busy creating a vast array of artifacts.

During the day the sound of Dremmels, Saws, Glass Cutters..

The generator powering soldering irons, riveters...

Its been an estrogen powered Santas Workshop!

The items created is the subject of another post, but for now
let me say that they've come up with some really nice items.

During the day I noticed the ladies gathered in close proximity and
at times whispering...   I knew something was up....

John's note = The ladies borrowed my dremel to cut some tops off of Gourds.

After dinner Sunday night - when night had drawn its shade over the
camp and the men were settled about smoking cigars and bragging about
our exploits...  our quiet reflection was broken by the
Robert Palmer Girls...
The Yuma Gourd Dancers..

Think of the Robert Palmer song Simply Irresistible and you get the idea.

The ladies had made John a present for all of the Martinis (known in camp as Johntinis)

 that he had been making for them.

A rock decorated with Colored Glass that read:  Johntinis.

Just another crazy night in the desert.

I have had a couple friends that have seen this tell me they have not seen me laugh this hard in over a year. I guess it is true. For all those wondering I am doing well and continue to move on. With friends like this crew who could not laugh. The MOC Family is great.

PS They watched Nikki yesterday and this morning I found a pair of the gourds on my bed. Last night I went to bed with the lights off and did not find it till this morning.
