Portland

I was hired by Lori Higgins to pose as a model for 2 new sculptures. She asked me to do it when I was working at the Merrie Monarch. So here's what I had to do...
*19th Wednesday-Fly from Honolulu (8am) to Seattle Tacoma, Washington, then from Washington to Portland (8pm). Flew all day! What a relief it was to finally check into the guest suite I stayed in.

*20th Thursday-(11am) Started working on the first pose, kneeling and a blowing a conch shell. I had to hold that pose for about 35 minutes while they did the 3D picture taking/scanning. I never knew how heavy my head was until then. Worked for just 3 hours and had extra time on hand...
SO...I went to the Portland, Oregon Temple and attended an endowment session! This temple looks like a beautiful castle! I'm glad I packed my temple clothes for this rare opportunity. Being in there just made me miss my husband more.

*21st Friday-(7:40am) Up and ready to work on the second pose, sanding with an ipu heke. Then I placed my hands into a bucket to clay to make a hand mold for the conch shell (1st pose).

(12pm) Off to the airport to catch my 3pm flight back to Seattle and then to Hawaii by 7:45pm. Since I had a lot of time, I was able to do some shopping for me and my husband.

Here are our welcome home gifts for one another
Nike shirt for Jase, portable back massage machine and beautiful roses for me!

Reunited and loving it!
