Well, here is the long and the short of it for now:
1. After winning the US Sailing Association award, Ron gave a presentation to thank the Blaine City Council for their support when we started the sailing school.  They were so moved, they applauded us for the good work Graham and I have done for the community.
2. The Northern Light Newspaper will release a story about the award.
3. We'll enter and probably win a third $500.00 grant from West Marine for new life jackets for the sailing school.
4. The Artisan Pizza class at the Senior Center was a big hit.  Lots of pizza, and other goodies were baked during the 4 hour class.  The next class in march will be on bagels, bialys, and pretzels.

5. This is Abe, one of Bunny's kids from last year.  Within 3 weeks, Bunny will have her second birthing of kids.  If they're anything like the first, they'll be real cuties.

6. Ron's postponed broom making demonstration at the Blaine Senior Center will take place from 10:30 to noon on Friday, February 17.
7. On Monday February 20, in celebration of Mardi Gras, the costumed Marketeers Band, will be playing at the Blaine Senior Center at noon, and at the Stafholt Nursing Home at 2:00 PM.
8. Cathy is teaching a six week water color class in March at her studio at our farm.
9. In March, Cathy and Ron will give a presentation to the Semiahmoo Ladies Club called "Greening Your Home Environment".  Cathy is a Master Gardener, and a Carbon Master, and Ron has a graduate degree in environmental education.
