Sun is up, time is wasting or I'm wasting time is more like it...Herb has the sheets washed and hanging downstairs on the clothes lines while I've been catching up on Angry Birds and Scrabble...He has also had breakfast and fixed a lunch in anticipation of an adventure with John today...The horses need to be hauled in from Chico as the winter pasture is getting short.
Last night I joined Pam and Nancy Greene for a "gala" event, the opening of the Josephy Center for Arts and Culture...Now I suppose you are thinking "Gala--Formal Wear"...Wallowa County has its own definition and style for this term...I must say the board of directors had spiffed up a bit and the docents were nicely dressed...The "presenters" were presentable and everyone else was well, dressed!..A few ladies were in dresses, very few in heels...I saw several sport coats on the guys, but nary a tie in sight...Everyone was clean, comfortable and non pretentious, gathered to celebrate a newly refurbished building where talents of all kinds can be displayed and shared with the community...A time to visit with friends old and new...A buffet table laden with finger foods and drink, flute and guitar music in the background...Newly hung art separated the room and the crowd flowed easily in and about, upstairs and down...We looked, listened, visited, snacked, had a glass of wine and did some people watching...The evening flew by and as the crowd thinned, the three of us made our way home under a starlit sky, Chief Joseph Mountain in the background....Hugs To All...OWAV:)
