Blog December 21, 2022 Celebration Winter Solstice Imogene adorned in her best attire, added a small bunch of holly, rinsed in the creek and shiny now.

I did a search and found a WORDPRESS forum on the topic. The original…Read more July 24, 2022 Gomez Upholstery and so much more Yesterday I attended an open house at Gomez upholstery. The studio is soooo much more than upholstery, although I must say the upholstery on display is quite beautiful and artistic in its own right.
