Tehachapi's Artist Community - grungehobbit.com

I see a lonely icicle peering thru a window, looking longingly at the wind chime on the patio.

 Another event happening this weekend.

(Edited after the fact... but most of you haven't read this as it was not posted yet anyway... now you have ...where's Mathnerde when ya wanna talk quantum theory? Thanks Sam for putting me out of my misery and setting me straight!

I know the purpose of this creative space is to share our arts among ourselves and to the world. I think this blog space also serves another important function as well, and it is times like these (snowbound) that we can get in sync with an emergency plan. The girl scout in me (make that CERT ...I was kicked out of girl scouts) says that this is as good a place as any too put out an s.o.s.

 (This isn't new, but there is usually someone out there who hasn't heard this, so here 'tis again...

I was supposed to take care of various Bakersfield errands, then upon return to town my plan was to head straight over to Hillybeans for the Zimmerman show. Because of the snow up here I did not make it out of the house at all today. I am in "I would rather be safe than sorry" mode today. As I sit here at 7:30 pm the snow is still falling here in Bear Valley. I am not afraid to drive in the snow, but rather I am concerned that I won't be able to make it back to my house if the road is shut down....

Soooo, Happy Hannukka! Happy Chanuka! Happy Hanukah! (I am sure there are as many ways to spell it as there are days to celebrate it.)

 

For anyone's interest, information, and for support, I would like to mention that a new Jewish learning center and gathering place has emerged here in our hills, finally!

Know what. I'm gonna be honest. I am a little dismayed, depressed, discouraged ...whatever you want to call it, about the lack of turnout at the Art Center this evening for First Friday Art Walk. This impression/expression/observation is mine alone, and not a reflection of the Art Center.
