100 Strangers Series: 13


Yesterday was my 800th post! It's hard to believe I've kept it up for this long. Wow.

This man is the potter Bernard Masset. We ordered some small dishes from him and his wife, Dominique, and when they were ready had a small adventure getting up into the French countryside to pick them up. Our GPS, named Winifred (Winnie for short), took us all over the place on tiny country roads to get to their place. It was a beautiful drive even if it took awhile due to all our wrong turns and Winnie's stern "recalculating" voice.

Bernard took us for a small tour of the workshop and explained how they create all their wonderful pottery. Needless to say, we bought quite a few gifts there (including some for ourselves)! You can see some of their work on the website.
