possibly my favorite photo:


We had mimosas and deepfriend oreos and nutterbutters- quite a combo;)I brought in some crafty show and tell, and so did a few others.
More people were out and about hanging with us at different times, wish I had pics of all but I was too busy talking with everyone and having a ball. Need to look at Tom and Pat's pictures of their amazing dolls closer and more thoroughly neXt time.
thanks again everyone for coming. I'm already looking forward to our next one. Hope to see you all at the grand opening of Smith on Sat and/or the Beach Hut on Sunday!.

That looks great! Keep posting the pics - we haven't had the presence of mind to take pics at ours but we have another scheduled in a few days so now I will definitely remember to take the camera.

You are fortunate to have boys there. I can't get any to come - I think they are terrified of being forced to doily something up despite my assurances.

Tell me about Tugboat and his model making - I did that for a living for years. Does he have anything up online I could take a peek at? I have a couple of very large scale projects I will be working on soon and I would love to talk to somebody and get a fresh perspecitve.

Tugboat is working on creating a model of the old Hansom House...this bar/lounge that was one of a kind out here...eccentric loveliness....decades of accumulation...and entire decoupaged room, dentist chairs....lots. will tak a long time...I don't think he has any pics online but you can ask him if you use myspace? his myspace is here: Tugboat's (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=72713391)
