I just wanted to post a link to pics from my Corvallis visit. These are from the house, factory, and museum. We were invited over for dinner (thank you so much John and Miss Melody), and I got to meet the family. The kids came over (they are lovely, talented, and sweet… totally adorable), and I got to meet Susie and her son, John (who Irelyn fell in love with.) Learned that Susie was John’s sister, which I can’t recall ever hearing before… If I knew that, I forgot it at some point. The place was great, with lots of animals and things to look at. Fun and homey. The following day we were allowed to tour the factory, which contained a treasure trove of goodies. There’s a discard cart of damaged or unperfect pieces used as test paints and Melody gifted Irelyn with a PYO Kirin and plugged some pink eyes and a horn in it for her. Justin got a young dragon… I think that was a perfect choice and so very nice of them. After the factory, we went to the Carousel Museum in Albany at their recommendation and I am glad we did. That place was amazing! Ended up spending money on things I had not planned on, so that was fun. Def want to go back there or shop a little on line. Thanks for that! It was awesome!! Hope you all enjoy the pics and thank you again Miss Melody, John, Susie, and kids for making this all happen. I hope you got the “Thank You” gift I had sent… it should’ve arrived Monday! Love you guys!!!
