Remember good old Ronald Reagan pitching "boro" for Death Valley Days?

That's right - I'm fricking older than dirt.

They are pretty much the only ones local that I know about. Seattle glass supply is good. I personally like heading to trev's when I can though. It's only about 40 minutes out of seattle.

I wouldn;t buy day old horse shit from Seattle Glassblowing Studio /5th ave. Olimpic color has some tools and maybe some boro, they had precision a while ago not sure if they still do. Frantz is down south a ways and Trevs is 45 min from my place.

Sounds like a bunch of perverted babysitters - no don't recall those names -other than people I've met in San Francisco.

....haha, the perverted babysitters name was Linda. nice little redhead she was.
pinky lee and the bananna man were on captain kangaroo. i think san francisco is one of my all time favorite cities. the haight was a blast in '65 and 66.

the bananaman would have fit right in there. he was the top banana in his art form. a bit of a hudini.....wonder if he sold boro?:puzzled:

And then there's Momka's Glass up off 200th in Lynnwood I think. Got the best glass and colors going and usually some experimental stuff that's fun to play with.
