Take a Breath

Here is Josh Bell entertaining my customers during my show last Friday at Terra Bella Bakery and Cafe. The crowd was light. There were several culprits. Due do an error my listing was not in either paper's First Friday calendars. People can't come when they don't know where to find you. Also, the weather was beyond spectacular.

May is a tricky month to have a show. Alaskans have been sun deprived and wrapped in sweaters for months. If the skies clear and the air warms it feels amazing, you can't be inside. It just seems wrong. I understand, I really do but I was disappointed I didn't get to show off Africa to more people.

My show at Terra Bell will continue through the month so many will have their thoughts turned to Africa. I even got an email from a wonderful supporter who said they toured Africa Sunday while they sipped coffee. That made my heart very happy. Shows aren't always about making money. They are about giving someone a fun experience. Causing them to take interest in something that maybe never appealed to them before.

Elephants trumpet, giraffes glide along and leopards stalk at 601 E. Dimond Blvd. ( next to Bed, Bath and Beyond) Stop in and take a little vacation without even having to pack a bag.
