We are seeking donations of cat-themed original art for our third Forgotten Felines Fundraiser,
For the Love of Cats. Rodney Strong Vineyards in Healdsburg is hosting the event again in
their enormous barrel room on Sunday, April 13, 2008 with an expected attendance of 550 people.

Donna and I went out for a tandem bicycle ride expecting to join a group downtown. Our flat tire in the first 1/2 mile precluded our group ride, but landed a new member of the family.

I was doing errands this morning (Monday, November 26th) and wandered into Loanna Clark Gallery on Kentucky. There is a very nice exhibit featuring local artist Nancy Chien Erikson.
