How do you know when it has been a long week? You wake up on your birthday and don’t clock that it is your birthday until you open your email and see all the yarn store discount emails…because it is your birthday.
Welcome to my morning.
After nearly three years, the past three days have been jam packed and fantastic. Starting at 4:30 am on Wednesday with grabbing the UHaul and packing it with the reef, thanks to the help of packing volunteer Cindy, it has been fairly non-stop.
There was that tense moment when I realized that I should have hired a slightly larger truck when I had to load the cab with some of the reef.
With the help of Krista, Lonnie, Denise, Lori and Shanna, the installation was assembled in a day and a half.
The opening reception was a success and the best part was meeting some of the artists in person. It was fun to watch people search the reef for their corals and get excited when they were located.
And the best ending to the event was being handed this sweet gift from Beth, one of our contributors. Kindness does rock.
