The first half of August in Vienna has been as hot as in the rest of Europe.
Staccato fireman
So we took time to get some clay from a clay quarry (and had some fun there too).
It get’s quite thick, with clay and stones.
At the clay quarry, in the august heat, in the only remnant of a normally 1,5 m deep waterplace.
our own private spa …
After the clay bath
And it feels really cool at such a temperatures (30+C).
And made some pots and other “work” that we burned later in an open fire.
afterwards …
Bringing the pots closer and closer, till they are hot enough to be covered by wood to start a real big fire.
looking at the fire burning the clay pots lying underneath.
In order to limit the access to oxygen and let carbon change the colour of the pots.
