Got my storefront key this morning! (I’m actually going to be changing it to a code lock shortly, but for today, a key!) Stopped by and dropped off a few folding tables, also put a few teaser items in the windows. No explanation, so may confuse people. 🙂 I’ll get some signage up soon.
Aren’t those poppies great? It’s a perfect sculpture to have outside my shop — part of the sculpture walk, by artist Jennifer Meyer.
Spent a little while working on the calendar just now — I’m going to lose track unless I have it all in one place. I’m going to have Connor Nevitt make a page on my website, so people can easily check and see what’s going on. Here’s what’s confirmed right now — calendar still in draft form, though!
(For next Friday’s board game night, drop-ins are welcome, but I’d like to play the new expansion for Photosynthesis, so if you’re interested in trying that with me part of the time, let me know — I’ll save you a seat!)
