One of the long-standing figures of Hays is Pete Felten. He is well known for his limestone sculpting. If you've been in the Kansas state capitol, you've seen Pete's statues.
He's a kindrid spirit (a Harry Potter fan!). I also think he lives a secret life as the Pied Piper .... he has a herd of cats that follow him around like he is playing a magic flute!
I stopped by to tell him it was my last day .... and got a big hug.
He offered to show me a recently completed bathroom in the Stone Gallery.
Check out the tiling ... isn't it awesome????
The floor is made from stone-like potholders. Clever! :-)
And last, here's the toilet lid. I'm not sure where the heck you'd get one of these, but think it *might* be a candidate for our master bath makeover. ;-)
