Fresco e Carico :: Happy Maker Station Coctail

Off the grid, not really...just working overtime on organizing a 1st. ed. Happy Maker Station creative market. So, trying to be as inclusive as possible, I thought it a good idea to extend being creative to other parts of the community. Here’s a snap shot of a local bartender and his interpretation of a Happy Maker Station cocktail: "Fresco e Carico--Fresh and Forceful. ”

Location Is Everything

It’s been a lovely game not having a camera to document my work. I have such an affinity with my 3 megapixel camera that I have been ever so slow to update, even if it was time... In the end, I was forced--pushed to update as my old camera had a battery leakage, and it’s still not known if the battery is on the market to replace.

So, this is the first published image with the new compact camera. It’s a picture of an ancient and typically Italian frescoed room dating from the 1700’s. It’s also the location of the creative market coming in May!
