Alby Art I have expanded my product line to Include PhotoART and WoodART. Not Every Man
Terry Alby is not every man. Words fall short of doing the vessel justice.

He looked at his firewood pile, observantly selected an un-split walnut log, attached it to his lathe, and uncovered a 15-inch wide by 20-inch high vessel. The craftsmanship required to do this is amazing, but the beauty re-birthed is miraculous. Former hidden layers retained the soul of the living tree. Knots, wood grain and now-exposed imperfections reveal nature’s hidden artistic flair. The Fac

ebook community liked, loved and wow-ed over pictures of the vessel. Shared comments included the piece was "cool as heck"... "killer work"... "pretty"... "beautiful!"... "amazing!"... and multiple combinations of these words. The vessel is killer / cool / beautiful / wow. But, its wonder is so much more than how nice it looks. There is a tactile magic to the work, almost as if a spirit inhabits the revealed wood. Vessel pictures compel you to caress the piece and invite powerful connections to the natural world. Heft or cradle the actual work (no small tasks for a vessel this big), and you may never want to let go. Imaginatively and creatively, Terry’s Wood ART and Photo ART stir up feelings of wonder or ambiguity, exciting your soul by striking highly personal chords from your dreams and experiences. Terry is passionate, engaging, imaginative and curious. But to really know Terry, wander this site and explore his work. Then visit nature (or other venues) with senses open, and discover beauty worthy of human attention. Perhaps use a camera to capture a small slice of beauty / reality / time. What is Worthy? It might be a family heirloom in need of a solid place to rest. Terry would welcome the chance to work with you to create a custom wood stand, shelf or display board. It could be your favorite nature photograph. Terry would appreciate the opportunity to help you transform your photo into a work of art. It could be a downed tree or tree branch with burls, in which you see potential for an afterlife. It could be a piece of wood with special meaning to a friend or family member, or a log saved from your firewood pile you would like transformed into a bowl or spindle. Terry would be pleased to help you re-birth beauty from wood for which you feel a particular (or natural) affinity. Or it could be driftwood, old barn-boards, or beams, wainscoting, or decking from old structures – each with abstract artistic aspirations. Terry would love the chance to work with you to tease out the beauty of your found wood. Next Steps

At some point – if it makes sense and the logistics work – schedule time to meet Terry, tour his wood and photo art galleries, and experience his artistic approach.

Five years ago October 22 the effort was started to recognize this Wonderful little piece of land in Waterford Wisconsin! Congratulations to Judy Gambrel and the Old Kids who like to hang out at the Village of Waterford Cemetery! This is a huge accomplishment. I will let Judy explain in more detail. Let it be know, that this is one of only 22 Historical Cemeteries registered with the whole State of Wisconsin. Judy donated so much time, effort and money to make sure this was done right! She also donated the 2 beautiful detailed, very heavy gates that are the centerpiece of this marker. The massive rock was donated by Dennis Witte of Witte Supply Company just 2 miles west of Waterford. A great deal of work was provided by Bob Gariepy and others from the Cemetery Committee for grinding and making the rock perfect for the plaque which is required to be Registered with the State of Wisconsin. Check it out. So much history to learn about as Waterford was just being established.

Would you just look at that handsome well-mannered Brute of a Champion representing all of us in the USA, in Wisconsin and in the now growing little spot on the map called Waterford Wisconsin!!!! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BRYCE! This is so wonderful and so well deserved. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• I knew you could win, Bryce, with all the talent, skill and knowledge you have gained with your Certified Coach who just happens to be your Dad. Not to mention the gene pool! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
However, even with all these advantages, there is always, still, the chance of getting lost in the proverbial Peruvian Jungle with all the details that need to be handled without fail or flaw. The obstacles an athlete and his team must overcome, are more than most realize, including me. The chance of injury, a simple foul at the line, Illness, dietary issues, timing, not only with all the training but just the challenge and intensity of all the effort for the preparation and timing (Not to mention Expense) of going to an international event with the dramatic production and world exposure of . it is truly amazing that it all came together culminating in a World Championship! I am so proud just to know you Bryce! I want to thank you for all the hard work, sacrifice of normal living and dedication you and your family aka have put forth! Waterford is on the map because of you. I love Waterford! I have lived here all my life (so far, I ain't dead yet) and this is so meaningful to me. I hope all of people from the Waterford area will get behind and support you Bryce and this substantial effort.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Bryce and his family have made Waterford there home since well before Bryce was born. They live and work here. They play on Lake Tichigan and the Fox River Waterway and are dedicated to Waterford and living here in the future. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• I am taking this time to announce that this is another huge step toward the 2024 Olympics for Bryce and that I will be continuing to personally support this huge growing effort for BRYCE, WATERFORD AND THE RULAND GROUP!

I have not been up early often lately when I am the sky is usually boring. so I try to get a bit to get creative. I found this not exciting enough to use my tripod and was limited to what I could do. A wider view was more boing. The polarizing lens helped.
