Working on Episode 2!

I recorded episode two yesterday afternoon and I've been working on editing it and adding some music samples in little bits of free time today.  I'm going to let Pete take a listen to make sure I didn't miss anything and then I'll put it out there.  I also tried to make the Stitch-Cast site a little prettier this week. 

Today was a big day for Maddie.  The annual Easter Egg Hunt!

Every year they have a nice egg hunt in my Mom's neighborhood for the kids and grandkids.  All very friendly and fair.  It was a little chilly, but bright and sunny!

We also went out to the "country" to see my Mom's new cottage on the river and visited an old farm town.  Look at these cool Lustron fronted shops:

At least I think they're Lustron.  (Don't know what Lustron is?  There's info here and here of course.)

So that was our day.  Hopefully the second episode of Stitch-Cast will be up tomorrow!

Look at how much fun she's having!! Sounds like a great day.

That looks like so much fun for Maddie!

Those buildings remind me of the town I grew up in. Do they actually have a soda fountain in that drugstore, or is that sign just a relic of the past? (Like a sign in a building in Pioneer Square in Seattle that says Rooms for 50 cents).

I've never heard of lustron being used for store fronts, and while I can't vouch for the first one, I would bet my left shoe that the second photo is vitrolite glass. Structural glass that quite commonly was used in the mid-century to cover up historic brick store fronts. http://www.vitrolitespecialist.com/intro/intro.htm

Lustron or vitrolite, whichever, it's a fun history lesson. Reminds me of my hometown Rexall drug store. Thanks!

I'll be listening to your podcast as soon as it's up.:-)

[Maryann]

Yay! Can't wait for the podcast!

I'll look for the new podcast! That easter egg looks lovely - and pink tights - weeeeee!

Those old building fronts are so cool. And going the way of the dodo bird :(
