A few weeks ago we had our Kid’s Pet Painting Workshop (See all about it here.) and Mara got away that day before I got a photo of the finished painting. Here it is. You did a great job Mara!

One of the things I like best about working at the shop is that I meet really interesting people who are visiting our town. Last weekend I met these nice folks who were in town for the week for Spring Break. They were staying out at the State Park and doing fun things each day. [...]
