124/365 pottery

I would love to learn pottery -- is that the right way to say it?  Learn how to make pottery.  I love the idea of feeling the clay swirling in my hands, and actually being able to make something out of that.
I flash on the scene from "Ghost", the clay so central to the sensuality of the scene.
Down in Tiajuana I remember stacks of pots being painted by some men.  I think there's something almost sacred about making a vessel.
