Taking advantage of the short break in the rain, to start work on my new displays. (One of the many things not taking into account when someone asks, “How long did this take you to make?”) then I heard the neighbors dogs going nuts. I didn’t think much of it, thinking that they would stop…but they didn’t. Then I remembered we have a bear roaming the neighborhood. So I’m taking a little break.
