10-17-09-- Saturday "Handmade Parade" in Hillsborough -- from the website: "The purpose of this outreach event is to foster community involvement in the arts through participation in every aspect. The informal atmosphere and hands-on character of the experience allows members of the community to work directly with creative people while gaining confidence in their own abilities. There is a natural exchange across cultures in this artistic process. Parading their artistic creations in and around the town center before an appreciative audience links the townspeople of Hillsborough to the act of creativity in the most rewarding and public way possible."

a sad day for me: really missing my sister. this is a picture I took 3 years ago at linda and alan's wedding. they brought "total and absoulute happiness to each other" (alan) and had just 3 years together - 2 as a married couple. I am very glad alan and his family are now part of our family. and when I am very quiet... the air still holds linda's spirited joy...
