Another weekend ... another festival


Yes, we set up our wares once again this weekend. This time the venue was Wilmington's Riverfest. It was a long weekend and both of us are whooped. The crowds were large with a lot of traffic in and out of our "Touch of a Paw" and DogPerils booth/tent.

We are dog lovers but we love all animal lovers. We met so many babies this weekend and heard most of their owners' stories. It was great! Once again, customizing our "Touch of a Paw" prints was a big hit. We can do whatever you would like on your print! Change the mat color (limited colors), color of the paper, and/or the wording. Just let us know. Karen or I are usually there. We want your special print to be the way you wish. Remember, there is a small up-charge for the customization.

Back in the Spring, at the Azalea Festival (also in Wilmington), we met a sweet and beautiful golden retriever, Honey, and her owner, Paul. We talked with Paul and shared some special treats with Honey. Yesterday, while we were breaking down, Paul did not see us as he and Honey were going on their regular evening jog. Well, Honey sure did! She looked over, saw Karen and almost pulled Paul to the ground when she bolted toward Karen. She knew Karen had some more of those special treats hidden away. I do not know who was more excited to see who. Of course, we did have more treats hidden and Honey's enthusiasm and memory were rewarded...several times. That made our weekend. It was good to see old friends.
