Still posting

 I managed to get  few more pieces of bear fabric into my etsy shop for my friend.  Now I just need to get bear makers to take a look! GlassDragonBearsEtc 

The weather people are right.. the temps are back up again. It is currently 93 degrees and the rest of the weekend is supposed to be the same. Yuck...

Our elder daughter posted a request for Bob to do  a doggie run this afternoon. Evidently Harper did a number on the wall next to the door going down to the cellar with her claws and she  wanted him to take a look.Harper must have heard something . The damage wasn't anywhere as bad as Bob thought  it would be... repairs would be easy he thinks.

PBS had an interesting documentary on tonight.. part 2 of  "Prohibition". I had some general knowledge  but Ken Burns of what was going on during Prohibition... the lawlessness, the increase in drinking, bootlegging and so on.

I remember my stepfather telling about his aunt crossing over the bridge into Canada at Niagara Falls ( the family lived outside of Rochester) with her special coat. Lots of pockets. She would cross back over to the US with bottles of liquor in the pockets. As a kid hearing this story I had visions of her waddling across the bridge with all the bottles clinking. 

We saw part one last week on the times up to Prohibition.  Next week is part three...
