Spring time is Sculpture moving time. Venues are making ready for their summer seasons. Moving heavy art is not for the feint of heart however. The Impacted Female got a new location this week, and during the installation at the Historical Museum in Tecumseh, MI we had a minor incident that brings a pause.  A truck lurched forward just as the sculpture cradle crested the ramp and it came down in a hurry. Fortunately it was lined up well and no one was hurt and no damage.The mind races for a bit at a time like this and then idols for a long time afterwards on the "could haves" and the dangers of what we are doing. this one went OK but their have been a few that cost me rework.   What if someone got injured? Yikes! Steady boys, don't be nervous, just stead boys.  The mind will idol on that 1/2 second every time I unload now, as it did for the rest of that day and on into the next.
Be careful out there.
