47th Annual Pow Wow was held at the end of September by the Council of Three Rivers American Indian Center. What a beautiful day it was with good weather, food, friends, the singing and dancing. ~Gretchen

The local Council in my region was hosting their annual PowWow Sept 26-27th, and found drawn to each bead, each ribbon, every little detail on their regalia. Just stunning. ~Gretchen

Sitting in a café for tea and coffee on a Friday afternoon, looking through a window, surrounded by antiques, artwork, crystals, good vibes. ~ Gretchen

Frosted glass sculptures stride through small indoor ponds surrounded by orchids and greenery at Phipps Conservatory earlier this Summer. These figures were placed randomly in one room so one needed to look. ~Gretchen
