Fall Is In The Air and I'm Pretty Happy!
What started out as a cool rainy summer turned into a beautiful summer with lots of people and activities.  Historical Week-End had perfect weather and the best attractions we've had. The PIB Arts Council hosted a reception on Fri Sept. 5 for Charles Herndon of Kelley's Island.  His web site is www.charlesherndon.com. He is a sculptor who uses indiginous rock. Beautiful. Also at the reception was Scott LoBaido of New York City.  Scott painted an American flag on one rooftop in each state and Ohio's rooftop is here at Put-in-Bay. Last week-end he had a gallery showing at the Doller House and then painted an American flag on an 8'x4' board in 8 minutes to the song "Freebird". His web site is www.scottlobaido.com.

"The Actor's Nightmare"

One of my driving passions is community theatre. Note the cast on my leg.  I broke it the night of dress rehearsal, but still made every performance with a little help from my friends.

What's New?  Alan is now stationed at Fort Leavenworth Kansas and is the assistant to General Caldwell.  Last week he was the personal escort for Colin Powell during his tour of the fort..   Candy is working for the Marion court system and spending time at home with her husband and baby girl. Tom is on the road with the Washington Nationals. He and wife Laura have a daughter and are expecting another child in October.  I am sewing matching outfits for the two girls and trying to get a quilt finished for Quinn now that she is in a big girl bed.

BRUTUS AND ME
DSCN0686.JPG

This photo was taken at a program given by LEIC-BSC for a boyscout troop in Shelby, Ohio.  Brutus is one of the teaching snakes kept by Kristin Stanford of Dirty Jobs fame.  Brutus lost his tail in a chainsaw accident many years ago and cannot be released back into the wild.  He has gone to countless shows and been held by all age groups because of his gentle nature.

Check out the photo album. I just added pictures 7-03-07
