Where Have I Been?

It's been a while since I posted on my blog - what have I been up to?  The picture below should give you some idea.  By day I work for an organization that promotes downtown Nashua, New Hampshire and that includes putting on large community events. 

Below is our biggest one of the year - the Winter Holiday Stroll, which takes place annually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and this year we had crowd of approximately 35,000 people. The event included 60 different entertainment acts - musicians, bands, choruses, dance groups, astronomers, magicians, ice sculptors and much more.  Plus a procession with Santa on a fire truck, lighting of the city's tree, food, shopping etc. 

It's a huge amount of work for our 2 person office (plus hundreds of volunteers) and it hasn't left much time for making books or my store (or a personal life, for that matter - my family hardly recognizes me!)





We'll be back to the regularly scheduled program shortly!
