Miss Daisy is going for a grooming today so she can be all spiffy when she sits at her booth (with her dad) at the Victoria Beach art show this weekend. Their mission will be to help raise funds for the East Beaches animal shelter. It's the same organization that Molly also sat for the past seven or eight years.
I will be busy in my booth with my polymer clay accent pieces. I have some new items this year and it will be good to be back at the Beach after a year off. The event wasn't held last year because construction on the new facility wasn't complete. Now that it is ready (although some work still has to be done on the exterior) I am looking forward to seeing my old friends at that lovely and popular event.
Returned yesterday evening from Kenora after a busy day at the market there. That venue continues to be a fun and interesting place to meet and greet. Saw many old friends from both the education and art field yesterday, and it was so nice to catch up with them. Then spent a delightful mid afternoon lunch with relatives and friends at the pizzeria in Kenora. And there were cupcakes too! I got half a dozen cupcakes from the gal whose booth is beside me at the market. She makes the most delicious "heavenly creations" ( that's what her cake business is called). I'm sure they were a fitting treat after the workout (swimming) for our young relatives from Guelph.
So it's catch up day today and tomorrow. I have several " holes" in my inventory that need to be filled by Saturday morning. It is a two day sale at the beach so I need to be well stocked. And since we will be heading back to Kenora again next Wednesday and off to Morden for the corn and apple festival a week from Friday, I will have to spend a couple of late nights supplementing my stash. No rest for the wicked.
Thank goodness we have our new air conditioner installed. With the heat index very high (well into the 30's Celsius) it's nice to be able to work in comfort.
Hot August nights, here we come!
