Another annual Artworks artfair

 

 

Artists were ready for art fans on Saturday morning at Artworks on Pilot Knob Road. Luckily, I bet the crowd and found some nice art pieces. 

Fall harvest festival

Young families showed up in droves to the annual celebration at the pioneer Holz Farm which is now owned and operated by the city. Photos, petting zoom, demonstrations and a farmhouse tour were all available. 

With artsy friends

 

Rotarian friends from the Eagan Kickstart Rotary and others joined me in my office for my art "Vernissage" on yesterday's beautiful autumn afternoon. We shared wine, appetizers and a love of  original art.

Remembering 9/11

 

American Legian members, Lion Club members, firefighters, police officers, Boy Scouts, Girls Scouts, Eaganites and others gathered for Saturday's 9/11 20th anniversary ceremony at 5 pm at the Eagan Community Center's plaza. 

Look at my fish, Grandma!

 

This boy caught a nice fish on Heine Pond! I wonder if he sent it back into the water?

Got signs?

 

Need a yard reminder that Halloween is coming in October? Swing over to Home Depot. 

Teaming with kids

 

The park was packed with children on Labor Day; no school and no work.

Outdoor evening

 

Another dinner outside on the patio of the Lone Oak Grill..... summer is ending. 

Pumpkins already!

 

Surprising to see pumpkins this early at Hyvee..... we're in September, not October! 

Friday food

 

 Brazilian meatballs, pasta and pine nuts. Yes, it was yummy. 

Dark and rainy

 

At 6:30 this morning, it was still dark outside. The days are getting shorter.... 

Live music

 

A live singer was entertaining the Market Fest crowd at the Eagan Rotary band shell. 

Cute and crafty

 

Welcome to September. Need a cute fall decoration for your front steps?
