Robert Shields, Sedona, Arizona

 
Before I leave Arizona (mentally and on the blog) I wanted to mention Robert Shields.

If you were born...  really in the 80s or later, that name might not mean anything to you.  I BARELY remember Roberts Shields, from Shields and Yarnell, but I do remember that the name was pretty big at one time.  I remember seeing them on variety shows as a kid.

On our first visit to Arizona, I stopped by a jewelry shop in Sedona.  I saw several framed pictures and posters of the mime team on the wall.

I asked the lady there who the Shields and Yarnell fan was and she informed me that Robert Shields owned the shop!

I thought that was pretty cool and made a few purchases.

A few years later, on our second trip, we stopped by the same shop.  I asked a lady there is Robert still owned the business, but he did not.

He is still making art, and I checked his website.  He has some really interesting pieces reasonably priced.
