Wow, what a week! We started with Arts & Greens … A special Thank You(!) to all who stopped, shopped and visited with us!!! We had a great time, despite the torrential pouring of rain that was oozing down the greenhouse wall, creating a river through the middle of our space … [Doh!] Once the …
A good Christmas, a good New Year’s Eve, and work-weekend one (of 52) down*… I like it!
