I really enjoyed the video. We went to the Meaders Family Gathering this year and came away with a LOT of ware and fond memories of the friendly, friendly Meaders (and family) folks. We talked to some of the sweetest ladies (Mary was one) who made us feel as people back in the 'old days' must have felt - at home. We're proud to have some good examples of traditional ware from several of the families.

Your videos are so wonderful, and such a very important historical document for us all. Not just potters, teachers and pottery buffs like me, but for people across the world. I hope and pray you all can continue this very important work. Thank you so much for sharing! DebraRay
