It isn't always easy to come by it. Rolling out of bed around 6:30am without pushing any "snooze" alarms, usually means it is time to get going.Generally, asking the higher power to "Take charge" is a good practice even before the feet hit the ground. After a shower and that first cup of Joe, it's time to be reminding myself that it's going to be a GREAT DAY!
The Farmer's Markets have been pretty good the past couple of weeks.Some folks are getting some gifts for the holidays after they have arrived in Calistoga for the annual Tractor parade. It's rumored to be one of the best attended small town seasonal parades in the nation! Quite an honor for sure.
On a sad note, one of our favorite vendors has passed. Sia ( The gentleman that sells the woven baskets from Africa) took a fall and did not recover. Your kind thoughts and prayers go with him.His partner and co-worker should still be at the Sebastopol Market to the best of our knowlege. Our condolences go out to his wonderful family and friends.Hopefully, she will be returning to the Calistoga market as well.
Today, I am truly grateful for all the people of our community.
People here in Calistoga really do care about their neighbors. At least this has been my experience and hope that it will continue to be for years to come. Below are this week's Rock(s) of the Week.
*Being that everyone of my neighbors are going full throttle with their own decorations, I've decided to be a little modest with my mini tree and stacked rock Christmas tree. Enjoy!
