Yesterday was the annual Harvest Festival and Pet Parade in St. Helena. In the pet parade families dress up themselves and their pets and do a one block parade. I think they keep it short to keep meltdowns to a minimum. In the parade we saw dogs, goats, fish, birds, chickens, and a miniature horse. Not surprising were the lack of cats attending the parade. I thought I would share a couple of images of dressed up dogs.
So, last Monday (that would be the Monday before Thanksgiving, mind you) I took my Landscape Contractor's Licensing Exam and passed! The state does not publish the exam dates so you have to wait to find out if your application is accepted before you know when you are going to take the test. I received the letter saying my application was accepted and in it was a summons(!) to appear for the next test date which was two weeks away. Needless to say I spent the next two weeks studying.
I took a review course and was the only woman. At the exam I was also the only woman. Made me wonder what is the ratio of men to women of license holders.
I'm happy to have that behind me! Now I am in the throws of preparation for a couple of holiday shows. One is this weekend in Berkeley at the Glimakra Weaving Studio on MLK. We are co-hosting this event with Kristine of A Verb for Keeping Warm. And our next show will be Bazaar Bizarre in SF on the 15th. Come see us if you are out and about!
I have been crafting while I've been busy but my camera is out of juice so I'll share pictures later. Have a great weekend!
