This is one of my favorite pieces that I like to have at markets 'cos they always bring a smile - even to people who are'nt glass fans. 'The Big Five" South African wild animals (Lion, Cheetah, Elephant, Buffalo & Rhino) are rendered in every medium imaginable (and some you probably would'nt imagine!) for both the local and tourist market. This is my version. As the cheetah has a pretty slinky butt - I replace him with the hippo.

I'm actually 10 miles north-west of Nashville (Cheatham County) way cool!!! brought a smile to my face on yet another snowy day in Nashville
Another snowy day in Nashville?! Is it coming my way? Rebecca it's moving in a North Easterly direction and when it changes from rain to snow it happens quick |

Glad the butts brought some smiles! Wish I could send you some of our heat - I'm coping less well with it as the years go by! I know this is not what you want to be hearing right now......but it's true. I guess that an excess of anything is ....'uncomfortable??'.
I did'nt need a picture of your behind, De - I have a perfectly good mirror to see my own! Where d'ya think the idea came from..?
