Artsy Fartsy

Well looky here.  In a window of an art gallery, there is a lady artist making music.  We heard it from our place, and had to check it out. All of the people on the street seemed to think it was really cool, but it bothered my ears.  So I would, of course, bark. Mama…

Aire-t in the Pearl

Art in the Pearl.  I’ve already peed on a tent.  Today it was time to actually walk through and see what they were doing… In the RAIN.  Yes, it hasn’t rained here for awhile now but – in a special nod to the Labor Day weekend – it’s pouring.  Which doesn’t dampen my spirits (I…
