Of course, we stayed out all night after The Dead show, and now, the sun is rising on Haight-Ashbury. As my blue beaded bus heads down the street, it passes an old fire truck. Of course, Rudy can't keep his eyes off of Dolly, that cute Dalmatian sitting in the back....I think he might have a crush on her... ;)

And, this fire truck isn't just any old fire truck... This is Engine Co. 6, and it was awarded 2nd Place in the NonWearable category at this year's Bead Dreams competition! What a wonderful surprise! I am so thrilled! Thanks to everyone who sent me photos of my work at the show. Also, I appreciate your kind comments and emails. *blush* I am very excited about this! So, to celebrate, I finally purchased my own domain name, thelonebeader.com. That means that somewhere in-between all of my beading & blogging, I'll be busy working on my very own website... :)
