On Friday we had to have our booth set up and in place at the
Art Deco Festival on South Beach in Miami by noon. It was a struggle to meet that schedule but it was worth it. What a great time we had!! Soooooooo many people. In other years we’ve opted to skip the night crowd but since the cost of the show had gone up, we wanted to get our money’s worth and opted to stay late into the night. We actually had people who met us at the show on Friday, came to the kennel on Saturday, brought their little dog back on Sunday, and took delivery on their new dog, TFN Casey today, Saturday. That’s neat!
Makes the long hours of the show worthwhile. We had a good group of volunteers and helpers and it was never, never dull.
On Sunday morning when I was headed down to SoBe to open the booth, Lee called me from the kennel. Seems the morning tv news people had done a broadcast about the festival and they’d done it from right in front of our tent with the whole Friends of Greyhounds banner behind them. Great publicity!

My sister recently lost her 11 year old, 75 pound, very loveable couch potato Lincoln after a long illness.
She is a greyhound girl all the way and will honor Lincoln with another soon. I would like to help your cause by donating $50 for each pet portrait commissioned out of my art gallery, The Avondale Gallery, Brad@TheAvondaleGallery.com until the end of this year.
