While we are on fashion, the Bayou City Art Festival starts today through Sunday at Memorial Park from 10am to 6pm! Each day should be fine, although a little jacket weather for Sunday. I know there is rain in the forecast but that will be a bit Saturday night and then Sunday morning. Don't cancel any plans. Here's our forecast. Dominique and I have decided we just LOVE their title painting this year by Julio Garcia:
A lovely way to end the month, which by the way, came in like a lamb and is going out like a lamb. The lions have stayed north of us this March! Have a great weekend! We'll be celebrating our son's 31st birthday Saturday night and I'll post the pics on Monday!
