Hi everyone, my name is Tara Blokzyl and I am a goldsmith from the westcoast of Canada. I used to be on this site a lot, and went to the Orchid dinner in Tuscon in 2002. So to those of you who might remember me "Hi!" and hello to everyone else as well! I've been busy as I am now the mom to a one year old and a three year old. Whew...Life is returning to normal, and I am returning to work... Hurray! My New Year's Resolution is to get "back out there!" I am very fortunate that I have been able to do some work while having the kids, but can now concentrate more on my trade. Having fun, Tara
