Hello Tucson!  This weekend is the 4th Avenue Street Fair where artists sell their wares and people stroll the vehicle-free 4th Avenue enjoying the wonderful food (aromas are free…love that BBQ), live music, and community atmosphere.

C’mon down to Silver Sea Jewelry & Gifts at 330 N. 4th Avenue (next to Bison Witches Cafe) and buy some one-0f-a-kind beaded bracelets to help pay the $14,300 vet bill. Bracelets cost only $20 and each bracelet is different, original, whimsical and for such a meaningful cause.

Tell Elizabeth (Lizzie) Mead that you read the blog and came by to say hi. Both Lizzie and her hounds Opal and Rider are doing well. It is a miracle!
