    I'm in Reno, you'll be driving right by my place, maybe 10 mins off the freeway, super easy to find.
    Hit me up and we'll meet n melt, at least you can grab a bite and take a leak.

    Cool man sounds like fun. Ill Dm you. I forgot to mention in my original post that I have a camper van and all my own glass stuff so I am pretty self sufficient.

    Destination Asheville?

    That town is second only to Eugene. Just curious whom your melting with when you arrive.

    The opening at level 42 was epic. Its a super nice shop. I actually drempt about that space before I ever saw it.

    Asheville is a cool town but im actually headed to Penland School of Craft to take a class with Cha (Chris Ahalt). Although I know there is a great glass coming out of Asheville I don't personally know any artists there.

    Penland is pretty close to Asheville from what I hear. Never been there, but have been to Asheville many times. Great people, nightlife and amazing food. Plus, Mountain glass is there in the river arts district and Level 42 is a rocks throwing distance from there. If you get time, definitely swing through there. Safe travels

    Level 42 is a must see, imo, if you're gonna be that close. Plus it's literally next door to Mountain Glass. There are 18 permanent renters, and considering the folks that are currently in that space, not knowing them shouldn't be a barrier to receiving a warm welcome and having a great time (and getting to know them).

    We're another 3.5ish hours east, in Durham, NC. Looking at your schedule/route, probably too far, but you're welcome to hit us up

    Had a great Saturday with Wes, he is one hell of a good dude! I hope to see him again one day. This was my first collab, his sherlock, my skull, couldn’t be more pleased. Safe travels my friend!

    Thanks everyone. I had a good trip. Didn’t do much glass but stopping and working with Cerberus was cool.

    Good tip on level 42 I’m going to check that out as soon as I can. After my classes I might try and keep traveling around. If so I’ll probably hit some of you up.

    Cheers
