Well I Never

When Mom, Audrie and I were at the beach we visited this art gallery in Cannon Beach called Dragonfire Gallery. They had some really cool things. I fell in love with a fused glass light switch plate by Kathy Steele. It was spectacularly red. I looked at the tag and it said $42. That was just a tad too rich for my blood. When I got home and still had most of my money for the trip I started kicking myself for not getting it. So I went online and found the website for the gallery. After a few days I contacted them to see if that particular light switch plate was still there. They called the next day and offered to take a picture of the one they thought it was. Well I wasn't sure and asked if they could just take a picture of the wall. They again called. I was informed that they could not take a picture of the wall because the plates were glass and would not photograph. I commented on the price and she told me there were none for that price.... Okay. So we talked about it and it sounded like the one I really loved was gone. There was only one other red one on the wall and it had a heron. I commented that that might be all right as long as it was brilliant red, not purpley red. The lady then informed me that they could not take photos (I did not ask her to) and that since I only lived in Battle Ground I could just drive on down and take a look myself. Sure. Two hours there and two hours back and a baby in tow. Methinks not. Guess they did not want the sale. Hope that was all right with Kathy Steele as I will now be looking locally for a light switch plate.
