The fall weather and our return home after summer shows means it must be time for one of my favorite things! A house full of some of the most talented artists in the country and the PLAZA ART FAIR!
After a great evening in the crisp air on the back porch, an evening of catching up, of great food and laughs so hard my side still hurts this morning, we are all on our way (shortly, in my case) to set up our booths for the last festival of the year. And it couldn’t be better. The weather is going to be PERFECT. Our friends are all gathered (both at our house and near the corner of Central and Nichols in the show). And it is time for what is sure to be the best show of the year!
Details of the show and the special celebration offering can be found in the email sent to subscribers. If you would like to receive these emails please sign up here and you can get in on the fun.

Why I can't write more...
After a great show at the Sun Valley Arts and Crafts Festival, great camping in the Sawtooth National Recreational Area, and some great meals, Kyle and I made our way to the Canadian Border where we stored our van and camper for a few days to vacation in Vancouver with our great friends and hosts, Jim Brown and Matt VanderWerff.

With the unrelenting triple digit temperatures in Kansas City, Kyle and I are counting the days (ten) until we leave for our NorthWest tour. So being the number geek that I am, and facing a full day of writing, I decided to count a few things first.
38 days of travelSo many more things I could count today, but for now I need to write 1400 words, to answer 10 questions, to prepare for Artist Inc 2.
