Go to Springfield ArtWorks facebook page to see the pictures I took of the Palace Yurt that was in the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in NYC some time back. I admire Janice Arnolds work. She is amazing!

Big day in Omaha tomorrow

Tomorrow is the big press day in Omaha. It's the annual shareholders meeting for Berkshire Hathaway. Lots of activity around town and discounts for shareholders at Nebraska Furniture Mart, Borsheims Jewelry,etc. Hope some of those shareholders make it out to Springfield to Springfield ArtWorks to check out the fine wearable art and glass art here. As always, Warren Buffett will be at his finest!

Combined Chamber of Commerce Event in Omaha today

Today I got the grand glorious tour of the Salvation Army Kroc Center after the combined chamber event. I was very impressed with the facility. There are some others similar to this in different parts of the country, thanks to the generous donation of the McDonalds founders and Omaha contributors. I hope to become involved by teaching classes there some day.
