Diane, part of the wonderful Skip Lawrence workshop, gave us some great cheese and a figs preparation to try together. We’ll drink it with the wine that Pat Dews gave us.

We are touched and happy that you gave us these wonderful presents. Thanks.

And thanks again, to all of you out there, for all the wonderful cards and letters. Not to mention the wonderful comment cards. Thanks to all the artists that gave us art works: Pat Dews, Charles Gruppe, to name a few. And thanks to all the artists that added their fire to this wonderful endeavor.

BTW, what’s the difference between a gift and a present? You have to be present, and present, for it to be a present. 😉

Thanks again. And thanks to all of you for a wonderful season. Next up, painter’s week. (And to all the people who asked: no, I can’t come home with you to cook for you and John can’t come either. 😉
