buster finds a mouse

while making the birthday card for cynthia, buster took breaks from helping me gather sticks and focused on finding little suprises in the snow.

silent auction for the rosendale theater

this past weekend, we went to a silent auction to benefit the rosendale theater. it is an old building that opened its doors in 1949 as a movie theater, and now is in jeopardy of going away. the town is collecting efforts to purchase the theater, restore it, and continue to cherish it is a lively center for movies, music and events. i donated some signed Martha books, which apparently went for over 350 dollars! it was held at a stone house not far from gobble hill. the house itself was rather impressive in that the rooms were big but understated in their decor. at the house, there were cocktails, a buffet brunch, and desserts. for more about the theater: http://rosendaletheatre.org/about.html
