Happy Mother's Day 2010

Family Day at the Horse Show

We're going to help at the Mother's Day Fund Raiser at charity horse show in Arlington, WA for the day. There are some marvelous people involved in this organization, and we're happy to support their great cause.

We met several wonderful horse owners and admirers from the Pilchuck Tree Farm area at the March show, and you can read more about what we're up to on the pages of AWhiteHorse.com.

We'll bring our booth display, as Phil and Shannon are making chocolate cupcakes, orange cupcakes, mini chocolate truffle tartlets, and truffle-topped brownies to bring and offer as additional fundraisers. We've pulled out the stops to help make a few extra dollars for the horses.

To keep in touch with what we're up to, see the main page at AWhiteHorse.com and be sure to enjoy our latest free online coloring pages, and jigsaw puzzles.

Currently, you'll often find us exhibiting my artwork in Bryan, Texas. Bring your family and some lawn chairs and enjoy the day with us.

Darrington; Gateway to the North Cascades

A Trip to ArlingtonDarrington.com Darrington, Washington is home to the beautiful White Horse Mountain, rising 6,850 ft (2,088 m). Rising dramatically from the valley floor, this glacier-rimmed mountain features brilliant waterfalls, wildflowers, and abundant wildlife. Darrington's valley is a favorite hiker's and photographer's weekend destination just northeast of the Seattle-Everett metro area on Washington State's SR-530, along the north fork of the Stillaguamish River. It's right in the center of one of Snohomish County's most beautiful scenic drives, the Mountain Loop Highway. From incredible scenery to down-home culture, Darrington is a unique community.
