I took a break from cleaning, sorting and purging the other day. I had gotten a short email mentioning that the Lullaby Moon troupe would be doing their last "gig" for the season at Golden Garden's park. At the last minute I scrambled to find something white to wear (my captain's hat - how fitting!) and scooched on down to the park.

The sun was just setting and hundreds of people were flowing into the park, all wearing white of somekind and many with bells jingling. Then the performers began to dance through the crowds and magically lead us to the marina and docks. There they waved good bye as they boarded a beautifl ship and sailed away - the live orchastra with them - music drifing out over the sunset. Surreal and wonderful - and just what I needed ;)

Thank you Lullaby moon!

Friends, beach, babies, bbq and fireworks... what more do you need? It was a beautiful and fun fourth for sure!

Dee Williams is hosting a Little House Building Workshop on June 27, 2009 in Portland, OR.

It'll be focused on building basics -- how to keep the house from falling,
crashing, diving off the trailer and learning how to use power tools. 
It's a hands-on deal, actually starting construction of a little house
on wheels. 

You can e-mail her at dee.boxcar-at-yahoo-dot-com if you want more information.
