This lovely maple is one of several near the intersection of Sixth and Penn in La Grande. Many trees in the city are at their peak of color. On this corner, you will also find one of La Grande's most delightful gift shops, The Potter's House. Open year-round and filled to the rafters with wonderful gifts, pottery and decor items, The Potter's House is currently under its annual transformation for the Holiday Season. Owners Bob & Judy Jensen give up the ground floor of their adjacent home for nearly three months every year to turn it into a Christmas wonderland of decorated trees, collectibles and holiday decorations. Watch this blog for information and photos when the house portion opens for the season. The gift shop and gallery remain open throughout the year, frequently offering raku firings during the monthly Third Thursday Art Walks. www.thepottershousegallery.com
