I’ve become fascinated with air plants recently. I never realized there were so many versions. The best part for me is how easy they are to care for. I find wood then Cecilia figures out which air plants to use. Pretty simple😀.

This piece has all of the right stuff for Cecilia’s very large orchid project. It’s 9’ tall and will host many plants once completely dry and cleaned up a bit. First I will search for a nice flat stone base heavy enough to support it.

Great couple hours for old bottles, old wood, and an old swamp rat. I pushed the limits of my Perception Hi-Life Hybrid today with a gorgeous piece of cypress. The bonus was a couple of bottles from the 1800’s. One from Jacksonville FL. So many bait fish in the shallows. It was fun watching the redfish chase them.

New booth assignment for Swamp Rat Russ is now #83 in the plaza by the Skate Park for Saturday’s Riverside Arts Market. I thought 229 by the river sounded too good to be true for a newbie vendor.

A few samples of pieces we are bringing to the Arts Market this Saturday. We will be in spot 229 close to the river.

The DeAndrade’s got this piece from us at the last Riverside Arts Market and said it reminded them of an old torch. It ended up on their Lanai in a pretty good spot. I made a citronella torch a while back and gave it away. Gonna try another one.

Thank you Sherri and Doug for sharing the pictures. I’m glad that you were able to get it from the Swamp Rat cave in FL to your beautiful home in GA and on the wall where it belongs. Brings me joy!

SRR will be back at the Riverside Arts Market on Saturday June 30, 10 to 3. This time close to the St. John’s River in space 229 and near the heart or the market. Had a visitor this morning at the Swamp Rat Cave go home with some nice pieces.

Chris was an apartment dweller in New York. Moved to Florida and is fascinated with even the tall pines, palmetto, and bushes that we natives take for granted and consider a nuisance. 😀 As fast as the developers are knocking down our forests for new homes, I’m going to take a lesson from Chris and appreciate what we have. He also likes the driftwood he got from us.
