… it's called a Tour de France. It's perfect for our summer holiday.
We'll bicycle through the country, explore cafés and nap in the sun ...
... only about 200 kilometers a day.

Why the big fuss about weight reduction and endurance training?
You look fine in your bike shorts. We just need a new buggy.
And some brie.

IF … Grounded

   To jump, one must first be fully grounded.

It's over.

Thirty days of non-stop performance. 

Meeting and greeting adoring fans is truly wonderful, but honestly, 

it can wear a mouse out!

To rejuvenate my spirit, I picked up a Mouse & Garden and headed straight for the salon. What a delight!

Well.
I shoulda paid closer attention to Poodle's big idea, but I was simply riveted to a juicy adventure story when she said something about pink tips.

Buttercup's Big Fat Adventure
THE SHOW OPENS!

Today I hung my show with help from my wonderful friend, Eileen. There are 50 pieces on display, so it took us the better part of the day. Seeing all the art together, matted and framed, was very exciting. It looked so dressed up. This Saturday will be my first "Meet the Artist" event, which will coincide with a couple storytelling events for young children that are happening in the Children's Library. If you're in the area, stop by and have a look-see!

Peet and Buttercup’s publicity photo

is all over the newsstands this week.
It was all Peet could do to not laugh ~
as Buttercup kept tickling him with her tail.

The reality of my first show hit me when I received the promotional postcards
in the mail today. It's coming up fast! I look forward to the solo performance ...
but first I need to get over my case of the high speed wobbles.
Please join me at the show!
