Storm takes out $25,000 in glass
My old friends Mark and Julie Glocke had nearly $25,000 in glass destroyed by a wind gust.
A sudden gust sent a half dozen glass sculptures by Mark and Julie Glocke shattering onto Grand Avenue, prompting a collective cringe from everyone within earshot.
At Arts, Beats & Eats in 2011 Mark and Julie's glass got caught up in high winds also and they had to pack on Saturday night and head home. Julie got hit by flying debris that time. Hope this is the last time this happens to you two. Best wishes.
