We Broke the Drought and the 20th anniversary

In moving to Georgia we were faced again with severe water restrictions because of the drought conditions. I hired a landscaper to run drip irrigation lines (a process foreign to this area) to all the major plants and trees since sprinklers were outlawed. Then the rain began. It has now been one of the wettest years on record. The lakes are full, the streams are flooded and many roads and bridges have been wiped out during the big rains. So, we broke the drought.

Next we are off to Scottsdale to help celebrate the big 20th anniversary party for the Celebration of Fine Art. It is going to be a huge event. So far we have over 200 RSVP's and still growing. It is amazing looking back over the 20 years and remembering all the great artists that have participated in the show and all the loyal customers who have supported the artists and our efforts.
We are grateful for all of it. I can't wait to see the new art work and to meet the new artists.

In case you haven't seen it pick up the January issue of American Art Collector. The Celebration is well represented. It shows the breadth of the work created by the artists who participate in the Celebration.

As soon as I figure out my "new" photo image software that has magically and mysteriously appeared in my computer I will post on our last adventure to Chattanooga TN.
