Mount Shasta 4th of July Festival

Mount Shasta City, CA July 2-4, 2009

DandL CREATIONS will be located on Castle Street for all three days. Come on over and check out our shoulder sling bags, wrap-around skirt, tote bags, hand-made shell and semi-precious necklaces; great looking turquoise and agate necklace sets-affordable. We also sell parasols, garden sticks, small stools (great for the parade), shell creations and a lot more.

Thank gosh the weather will not be as hot as it was a couple years ago. It's a great festival and gets loads of people attending on July 4th and hopefully people will visit the many booths on the days prior, Thursday and Friday.

For you crafters, vendors, etc. that subscribe to Craftmaster News. Recognize the picture? This is one I took a couple years ago from about 20 feet up from my booth. This photo was on the cover of the April/May issue. Isn't that a beautiful place? Looking at the mountain, you might think that it's kind of cold there? Uh uh uh. That day it was 106 degrees...at least. It can hot there.

Pinole Cruisin in the Park

On Sunday, June 29, we were vendors at the 'Cruisin in the Park' car show at Fernandez Park in Pinole.

Left home at 5:10 and arrived at Fernandez Park around 5:45. I had to seek out Kathy, who showed us where our booth was to be located. I then drove the van over and we began setting up. This was in a ball field...deep second base just into right-center field. At least we weren't way out in left field, which was actually the far end of the show.We were able to park the van behind the booth. They had a lot of cars on display in the event....perhaps a hundred on the field in front of us and more off to the left. There were many more spread througout the event all the way over to San Pablo Avenue.
